Cascade Pale Ale

In attempt to get a second 'house beer' style I will be focusing a few smaller batches on playing around with Pale Ales.  The first thing I'm working towards is the hop profile.  In my first round of test batches I will be using 2 row with a small amount of Caramunich as the malt bill, Perle as the bittering hop base, and BRY-97 dry yeast.  The flavour/aroma hop will be in play with the first attempt using Amarillo, this second batch will use Cascade.
