Recently I've developed a fairly straightforward base recipe (mostly pale malt, with some Munich and CaraAmber for color/body) from which I've been trying out different hops in a take on a SMaSH ale. But since I've found that fairly dull except for hop trials, I've also been jumping off into 2-hop beers, primarily one hot-side and one for dry hopping, to interesting success. My Mosaic hot/Amarillo cold was predictably delicious and a Pacific Jade/Nelson Sauvin came out weirdly flat but delicious in a different take on an old-school American PA.

So now the question for everyone: does anyone have double hop combos they've either experimented with or had success with or just thought they wanted to try? I've got a fairly wide range of hops available locally and some Huell Melon of note in my fridge-any ideas what might go well together?
 
Probably a better idea-don't mind me, created one over there...

How many types of hippos are there?
🤔
 
The mother/baby hippo combo is my personal favorite, hard to beat:

Hippos kill more humans in Africa than any animal besides the mosquito (malaria). They are that fat guy that can move way faster than you expected him to and have a powerful bite. The local fishermen on the rivers always say, "Watch the crocodiles, but avoid the hippos."
