About 30 years ago, when a lot of the "flavored" coffee was the rage, the First Mrs. Beard and I would drink the hazelnut stuff, on weekends. I was on a 200MW cogen installation and working on a Saturday. I decided to bring in some of the ground hazelnut coffee.
Made a pot, and our Lead Engineer looked at it, sniffed the pot and poured a cup and walked away.
One of the electrical techs that often drank our coffee walked into the trailer, put his nose in the air and said "It smells like a wet dog in here!". From then on, Hazelnut coffee was known as "Wet Dog coffee".
