This is probably a stupid question, but...

What exactly are Smooth Cone Hops?

[denimglen]

A variety of hops that is a Cali Late Cluster open pollinated.

They're pretty easy to get a hold of. Haven't brewed with them yet but have a kinda spicy, lemon rind aroma.

Thanks!

I found some growing wild last weekend so I've used them in two brews. They seem very mild. All I know is that they're a smooth cone variety.
