El Dorado 2-Row Maris Otter

El Dorado hops should smell and taste like Tropical Fruit, pineapple and Mango with aromas of pear, watermelon, stone fruit and candy. This is my Forth batch using El Dorado. Here is the recipe I used:

1 LBS 8 oz 2-Row

1 LB Maris Otter

.39 oz El Dorado @ 30 mins

.29 oz El Dorado @ 5 mins

.5 oz El Dorado WP 170 for 15 mins

US-05 Yeast

.32 oz El Dorado Dry hop 3 Days

7.39% ABV

Color: Hazy burnt orange

Smell: Fruity pear watermelon

Taste: Big malt tropical fruit

Overall: I think the whirlpool was a good think on this one. I would like to see the malt turned down on this one. Im not sure why Im picking up more malt on this one vs the one with all Maris Otter.
