Went to Frik N Frack with Dave in the spring. He had the Canadian Burger with a Canadian. He died and went to Canadian heaven.

A liquid poem to the glory of the hop.

I’m in love. Discovered this IPA over the weekend and damn if it isn’t pure heaven. A wee bombardment of hop, enough to rattle your taste buds, while leveling off in time for a cooling malt-bath of the tongue. Glorious.
Stone Ruination IPA – 7.7%
Stone Brewing / California
Brewer’s description:
“So called because of the “ruinous” effect on your palate! This massive hop monster has a wonderfully delicious and intensely bitter flavor on a refreshing malt base. One taste and you can easily see why we call this brew “a liquid poem to the glory of the hop!”. Those who seek, crave and rejoice in beers with big, bold, bitter character will find true nirvana in Stone Ruination IPA!”

I never shared my favourite mug. That’s because I don’t have one :/ However, one of my weekend rituals is to frost down one of these pint glasses and pour in some icy cold IPA. Mmmm.. perfection.
(That said, Jon does have a mug for me. Passed on from my grandpa. I’ll post it once he gets it to me)
