Notes

Consider substituting Special B or Double Roasted Crystal for some of the Crystal 45. Doing so may require dropping the Crystal 160 down to 120.

Consider substituting up to 2 pounds of invert sugar for some of the base malt. https://www.morebeer.com/category/brewing-sugars.html#Invert Sugar

Consider blending Maris Otter (or similar Pale Ale malt) with the Golden Promise.
