Does anyone here have a good recipe using this type of hop? I'm looking for fruity, tropical, citrusy flavored and aromas. About 10-11% abv. Any help?

Check out the india pale ale recipe section, lots of good ones there
 
Lots of Citra and Amarillo late in the boil and the dryhop is your answer. And when you think you've used enough... add more.
 
Agree with the above on Citra - I've used it a few times and it definitely has some tropical fruit notes, more specifically mango IMO. If you can find Nelson Sauvin use that as well. Just made an all Nelson Sauvin pale ale and it reminds me of a more intense fruitier version of Cascade with definite hints of grapefruit.
