What a Brilliant idea! I have already shot this link to my buddy! Our club does an educational presentation about every other month at the meeting called "Liquid Dynamics Lab" They take a "brewing myth" and brew a batch and split it into however many variables there would be. This would make a really fun Lab for the club.
So far this year we have done the ELUSIVE Hot-Side Aeration and Olive Oil instead of 02. We regularly have about 100 members show up for the club meetings, so this experiment would have to be done on a large scale.

Here were his results for those that are curious - this is a great summary:
Amarillo: Sweet, big stone fruit character, some citrus.
Apollo: Insanely dank, much more so than CTZ.
Belma: Fairly funky, there's some fruit in there, but it's hidden pretty well.
Cascade: Classic, fairly mild with some grapefruit.
Centennial: One of the best on its own. Smells like Trix cereal; big sweet orange note.
Citra: Smells like mangoes - straight up mango.
Chinook: Least favorite, pine with a big dose of cat piss.
CTZ (Columbus/Tomahauk/Zeus): Dank with some citrus underneath. Not quite as pungent as Apollo though.
Galaxy: One of my favs. It doesn't have the in-your-face character that Citra had, but it's very tropical, and seems well-rounded. Almost tastes like a blend.
Mosaic: Like a mix of Citra and Simcoe with a hint of blueberry.
Nelson Sauvin: Very nice, citrus with a hint of grape. It's a pretty potent hop.
Simcoe: Massive grapefruit aroma with a little pine. The pine almost has a fresh-cut-grass quality.

I'm going to propose that our club try this at one of our meetings. Thanks Kal!
