Hi daf,
I brewed a beer with these hops a couple of years ago. See link for the original post.

Very grapefruity if I recall correctly.

I did one last year - I loved it but my wife said it stank of cat pee and wouldn't let me near her with a pint :-)

Chinook is definitely a tomcat urine hop, but it is nowhere near as bad as Simcoe. I cannot get past the smell of Simcoe. Simcoe makes a beer smell like it was brewed with alpha tomcat urine.
