Anyone have advice for the John Bull IPA beer kit?

Specifically for:
- use the yeast provided or switch it?
- I've used beer enhancer instead of sugar, good move?
- what would be a good dry hop option? Or do you think it's not needed.

Any tips would be welcome. Brewed a 10l batch.
 
I made this a couple of time, both times with the standard yeast - turned out fine.

Both times I used dried malt extra in place of sugar and the 2nd brew I used soft brown sugar for priming.

I used bravo hop for dry hopping my second go, but only 25g. Probably could have used more.

Both times was a great beer.

Great cheers, I like the sound of Bravo might give that a go. Going to split between 2 5l batches, will dry hop just one.
 
I can't say bravo was planned, I just added some to an order and threw it in the next beer I brewed. Worked for me though.
