Help with hopping with fruity hops

[coreygrado]

I'm trying to make a really crisp dry pale ale and I have the following hops on hand. I want it to have a really fruity dank aroma and flavor. Should I just dry hop the crap out? I have mosaic, el dorado, sterling, cascade, ctz. I was thinking of adding a 60 min bittering addition then loading it up on the whirlpool. Then dry hopping. Never used mosaic or el dorado. Heard they're both pretty fruity. Thanks!!!

Did something similar for the last brew.

60 min - 0.75 oz Citra, 0.25 oz Magnum
20 min - 0.5 oz Falconer's Flight, 0.5 oz Palisade
5 min - 0.5 oz Falconer's Flight, 0.5 oz Palisade

Planning to dryhop with 1oz Glacier. The aroma is busting out of the fermentation fridge as is.

I'd go with lots of late low AA% additions in the 20 - 0 min range instead of a ton of dry hopping.

If you want to get crazy with it perhaps you could look into making a hopback?
