I have 1882 Thames Valley II & 1768 English Bitter that I might use instead. I'm thinking of grinding the RB to flour & tossing it in the sparge.

I tried about half as much Victory in my ESB recipe and I thought it was a little too much. Not my fave in an ESB but if you like it go for it!

Looks great to me, though I might have to sample to be sure
