El Dorado SMaSH 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 Third batch using El Dorado. Here is the recipe I used:
2 LBS 8 oz Maris Otter
.39 oz El Dorado @ 30 mins
.29 oz El Dorado @ 5 mins
US-05 Yeast
.32 oz El Dorado 3 Days dry hop
Color: Burnt orange hint of haze
Smell: Roasted malt sweetness fruit citrus
Taste: Smooth more toasted bread than the other ones. Hint of fruit citrus
Overall: Its ok. Not that good right now. You get more malt than anything. Maybe need to up the hops used in this one. I think El Dorado should be used with other hops and not in a SMaSH beer
