Naked Gold IPA

Most IPAs I do have the same basic grain bill: 10ish lbs of base malt, some British or germon base malt, some crystal, and then something different. This time I'm tossing in a pound of golden naked caracrytstal oats (hence the name). I also bought some palisades and falconer flight 7Cs hops. I'm not sure how those are going to go together but they're both NWie aromatic hops so they should complement each other well.
I picked up a couple different yeasts I've not used yet and am going to do 5 gallons with one and 5 with the other.
