So as I'm enjoying my Maris Otter/Challenger SMaSH, I realize what the Challenger hops remind me of -- raw asparagus!! So that got me thinking, we should create a list of hops with their respective flavors/aromas. Such a list should help all of us when designing beers. Instead of "floral" or "citrus", descriptions should be more specific. Here are two interesting ones I've noticed:
Challenger - raw asparagus
Northern Brewer - candy peanuts (you know those orange marshmallowy things that used to be popular)
