Plus grapefruit can mean two different things. There's the extremely bitter taste of the pith you get drinking a glass of grapefruit juice or eating a grapefruit cut in half. Grapefruit that has been fully peeled has none of that taste and it's sweet, citrusy and tropical.

And then theres the whole aroma vs flavor thing.
 
Let's not forget Columbus. I used 2oz each of Columbus,Nugget,& Cascade in my last IPA,& it was mainly grapefruit & bitter orange with a hint of lemon. I want to add Citra &/or Amarillo to it next time.
