Starlet, scouts honour I got yours on my own. The fruit gave it away.
(And if I knew about the file names I wouldn't keep doing it like the dumbass that I am!)

Clue:
Genus name is pronounced almost exactly the same as a different unrelated genera.
Tom,
It's a compliment to have you stumped!

OK, so there are a few clues out there so far:
Quote:
No, no, and no. But Boreality is on the right path, so to speak.
This was obscure. There were three guesses at the time but Boreality's guess was a native.
Quote:
It appears to be opposite branched with possibly compound (3) leaves.
Quote:
No and Yes, respectively
So that's alternate with compound, 3 leaftets
Quote:
Clue:
Genus name is pronounced almost exactly the same as a different unrelated genera.
...but starting with different letters.
And finally:
Smells like citrus, tastes like beer.

Starlet, (and anyone else not watching football...)
Native, alternate branching, compound leaves w/ 3 leaflets,
Genus name is pronounced almost exactly the same as a different unrelated genera...but starting with different letters.
And finally:
Smells like citrus, tastes like beer.
If needed I've got one more clue that will likely give it away.

Hoptree - Ptelea trifoliata?
From the beer clue, also Ptelea kinda sounds like Tilia
If correct I don't have pictures to upload so it would be open.

I just googled that tree and found the picture that was posted.
So that's definitely it, D. Nice job!
I thought that I saw reddish berry type fruits in the top of the crown, but P. trifoliata has a samara type winged seed. I wonder what I'm seeing in the picture?

Yup, that's the one!
I see something like berries as well - but maybe thats the samaras?!?
Anyway, another reason to stick with your own photos: quality control. Maybe that's not Hop Tree at all!
Who's up?

No on the Juglans.
Holly, you got the C. atlantica right, and the P. strobus, but it's actually a fastigiata. The tree way to the left is a Sweetgum, and the two in the middle (the ones in question) are the same.
