From time to time, we like to tweak the recipes of some of our most long-standing beers—like Stone Old Guardian Barley Wine—to create unique variations. This year we’re taking it to the next level by dry-hopping it with Pekko hops—a new varietal from Washington’s Yakima Valley—which in turn add notes of stone fruit, orange, lemon and mint to this bready, toffee-like beast of a beer. Hop Varieties Warrior, Cascade, Chinook & Pekko

Rated Feb. 2016. 22oz bomber pours with a clear deep copper to amber body that supports a full tall tan head of foam. The aroma offers up pine hops and then a blend of mint and sweet clementine with sort of an herbal and mildly boozy sensation into the end of the draw. The taste delivers smooth slick malts and firm yet malt softened pine hops. The pine hops approach a low level of resiny hoppiness just as a cool mint sensation comes to the surface. This is a really cool brew where it’s softer and smoother than the original yet just as satisfying.

Bomber from Haggen (Burlington, WA). Mahogany pour, 'neath a slight, ivory head. Caramel malt nose. Mouthfeel almost buttery. Interesting flavour: boozy, malty, hint of bitterness. Peppery notes at the finish. An interesting, useful beer. But, at $10(US) and given the $US>Canadian peso exchange rate at the time, the cost was rather dear.
