Agree with Stu. 2 packets of S05 correctly rehydrated.
What pale malt? if it's maris otter or some other hearty english pale, I'd up the dextrose a bit - at least a kilo. A touch more crystal would make it easier to drink, you could double it to 200gm and still have the pale bitter pliny-type beer you're after.
Also, make sure you get those IBU's on the money, you don't just want hop character (flavour and aroma), you want straight out isomerized bitterness to counter the sheer gravity. First wort hops won't help you with IBUs, I would shuffle some of that later hopping back to 60 minutes and up the IBU/Gravity ratio to 1:1
Those hops are extreme! My tongue is curling just reading it. Going to be an amazing beer glen!

Damn looks massively tasty, but what sort of OG/IBU ratio are you looking at? If its only 1 to 1 it wont be very bitter IMO, my IPA I did was a 1.2 ratio and its very drinkable still, I wouldnt say its too bitter... Alot of my Pale Ales have a 1.2 ratio as well, I just love a massive "zingy" bitterness ;o) So yeah, like Joking says, bump up the IBU's to 100 :o)

Reading up about rouge and old pliny, they come in at 60ibus and 92 ibus. They say that the high attenuation make the percived bitterness more extreme. I am thinking of bumping up the IBU's to 100, or at least 1 to 1. I am more worried about my hops coming out soapy like my APA.

Yeah Cascade plugs and pellets, Centenial and Chinook. I have read with large amounts of hops that you can get a soapy taste to your beer if your water is not hard enough. I put 1table of spoon in the brew water. but may have to up it on this brew. Jamil show Imp APA talk abit about it also.

Crazy, ive never had a soapy taste, sometimes I overdo it abit and all I get is this massive zing, but its grown on me ridiculously :o) haha

Not meaning to be pedantic, buuuuuuuuuuut......
Stone Ruination IPA is100+ IBU (so they claim) The batch that I had in October 2007 peeled the enamel of my teeth. It "zinged" on my tongue so bad that I had to check to see if it was bleeding. It was so bitter, my eyes watered, my lips puckered up and my cheeks turned inside out: and this was only when the beer was on the way down - I'd hate to tell you what happened on the way out! The beer was divine!
Stone's was a real highlight - so was Pliney & Green Flash - they were a lot more intense that Rogue XS (dont get me wrong - I liked rogue: but it was a different beer). I guess it all depends on individual taste though and you should 1st and formost be brewing what you like to drink!
Cheers Mike - good luck with the regulator!!
