critique my next NE DIPA

[elburrogrande]

overall very pleased with this beer. Its about 7.5% abv with no alcohol bite and very hoppy but low bitterness. It has a little bit of residual sweetness but its rather pleasant. I added 2gs of cacl at bottling and it has a creamy soft mouthfeel. Will definitely be playing around more with my water chemistry

I see most of the previous conversion has been regarding the grain bill. I'm interested in the hops. Farmhouse still has Exp7270 on sale. it's described as a fairly overpowering hop. On the other hand, Mandarina Bavaria is described as a delicate hop. Did you feel like the MB came through at all, or was it completely dominated by the EXP7270? I'm assuming you liked the 7270. Any comments on the hop specifically? I'm also thinking of using it in an upcoming double version of my NE IPA, which coincidentally features MB.
