Because viable seeds are undesirable for brewing beer, only female plants are grown in hop fields, thus preventing pollination. Female plants are propagated vegetatively, and male plants are culled, if plants are grown from seeds.[18] The flowers from the female plants are used to flavor beer.
Those are definitely female and the pollen you're referring to is called lupulin, its the resin that gives hops its bitterness. If you do come across any seeds, there are a few of us on HBT that would be interested.
