One thing no homebrewer should be without is the Hop Variety Book (PDF) from our friends at HopUnion in Yakima, Washington. This wonderful book has information for dozens of domestic international hop varieties, including their alpha acid, beta acid, and essential oil content, and so much more including some decent aroma descriptors as well.
