With all the hop varieties that are currently available at LHBS and online it will take years to brew and taste batches to determine whether I like certain flavours of hops. I am looking for suggestions of commercial (and readily available) examples of beers that give an indication of single addition hop flavours.
To date my compliled list is rather short:
Amarillo - JSGA
PoR - most aust lagers (I understand that most do not add PoR as a flavour hop, bittering only).
Cascade - ?
Columbus - ?
etc.
Suggestions anyone?

Cascade - LCPA uses it, but from different sources and also mixed with other hops.
Columbus - I know lots of people use it for AA% in commercial bittering, I only know of US micros using it for flavour and aroma.
