I wouldn't call the Ruination IPA a "heavy hitter," Brian. It's definitely not a fizzy yellow beer a la Busch, but it's not Belgian-dense either. What I like so much about it is that it certainly is hoppy - which by definition all IPA's are - but the hoppiness is propped up by a touch more malt than most IPAs have and all interlaced with citrus fruit notes. Not like added lime or anything, just there as part of the beer.

Now...Double Bastard is indeed a heavy hitter. The Pittsburgh bar where I enjoyed a couple of Ruinations earlier in the week had a 3-liter bottle on the shelf. Only $130 but we might have needed more than just the 3 of us to get through it.
