Brewer's Gold

I have been having trouble getting brewer's gold, a good substitute was recommended as Galena, just adjust the AAU's down to 6.
Looking to improve this one ...

OK, I brewed this using a step mash and it turned out very light in flavor and too much Cascades dry hop at 1 oz. I dropped this to 1/2 oz. Cascades and single infussion mash to get more malt flavor. This recipe should be bursting with good malt flavor, it got washed out in the mash. I will be brewing this again 2-6-2005, and post the next results accordingly. Feb-4-2006 I have completely changed this recipe, it came out Ok, but needs improvement, I will postresults of these new modifications once I have them.
