I've often wanted to do this and I've seen about a dozen recipes that swear theirs is it.
Care to share yours?
I'm glad it came out to your liking. Ain't kegging fun?

SNPA recipe from the December 2012 Brew Your Own... I've brewed this one 6 times, a house favorite here!
Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone (5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.052 FG = 1.011 IBU = 38 SRM = 10 ABV = 5.4%
Ingredients
10 lb. 2 oz. (4.6 kg) 2-row pale malt 11 oz. (0.30 kg) caramel malt (60 °L)
4. 4 AAU Perle hops (90 mins)
(0. 5 oz./14 g of 8.8% alpha acids)
6. 0 AAU Cascade hops (45 mins)
(1. 0 oz./28 g of 6% alpha acids)
1. 5 oz. (43 g) Cascade hops (0 mins) Wyeast 1056 (American Ale), White Labs WLP001 (California Ale) or Fermentis US-05 yeast (1 qt./1 L yeast starter) 1 cup corn sugar (for priming)
Step by Step
Two or three days before brew day, make the yeast starter, aerating the wort thoroughly (preferably with oxygen) before pitching the yeast.
On brew day, mash in at 155 °F (68 °C) in 14 qts. (13 L) of water. Hold at this temperature for 60 minutes. Raise mash temperature to 170 °F (77 °C), hold for 5 minutes then recirculate. Run off wort and sparge with water hot enough to keep the grain bed around 170 °F (77 °C). Collect 6.5 gallons (25 L) of wort. (Check that final runnings do not drop below SG 1.010.) Boil wort for 90 minutes, adding hops at times indicated. Ferment at 68 °F (20 °C).

That's the recipe I have in my files but many have suggested 1-2 oz of Cascade dry hopped for 5 days. Don't really know why I've not made it before but I'll have to move it up on the list and give it a try.
Thanks!

Good options. I might have one in Clone Brews too. I love Pale Ale. I have about 9 gallons of Pale, 5 of Amber in bottles now. So, next up is Blondes. But a SNPA clone is in my future.
