Commercial Description:
So called because of the immediate ruinous effect on your palate. 100+ IBUs. Bracingly bitter. Thick, pungent hop aroma. We would say that no hops were injured in the brewing of this beer, but that would be a massive lie. In fact, the words "Stone Ruination IPA" are what older hop vines use to cause little hop vines to quiver with fright and lose sleep at night . We at Stone honor the brutal massacre of countless hops with this "Liquid poem to the glory of the hop!" Paganism at its best!

<i>Bottle (35 cl) at the Rover, Göteborg, Sweden</i>. Hazy orange with creamy white head. Potatoe malt aroma, piney and apricot hops. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Dry and bitter, but would not guess 100+ IBU. Good but not great.

On tap. Clear golden color, thin sparse white head. Very citric and floral hop aroma, aggressive for a regular IPA. Sharp floral hop taste, follows through the finish. Nice strong citric IPA.

The beer is clear and has a deep golden color. The aroma smells of grains and hops. As you take a sip you’ll notice minimal carbonation, essences of oranges, and a load of hops.This beer is pleasantly bitter while sporting a dry sweetness that balances out the pint nicely

Neon orange with big white head. Aroma of hops, flavor of hops, a bit over the top for my taste. Decent citrus flavors hiding behind the hops. You have to like hops. A lot.

Pours a clear golden with an off-white head. Light sweetness with a heavy bitterness. Hoppy aromas of pine and spruce and a bit of lime. Light alcohol notes. Full bodied with a slightly sticky mouthfeel. Soft carbonation. Slightly chalky finish. Very nice.
