I think it was Jayse that has mentioned this method before, and I'm sure it would be a VERY rough ballpark guess, but stick some of the hops in your mouth and start chewing. Count back from 10 and when you spit it out that's the aa rating.
Out of curiosity I tried this on the weekend with some hallertau. I could only chew it for 7 (counted back to 3) seconds before I had to spit it out and my bag said 3aa. I haven't been game to try it on POR or any other bittering hop yet h34r: but maybe I'll get game and give it a go in the future.
