    Due to the unfortunate circumstances of employment, I haven't had a chance to get out and look for this release. Has anyone seen this on the shelves today?

    It was released across the Stone Footprint today. A few people in other states have posted getting it

    skip the hype train and grab 2 bottles of the new Jack's Abby IPL (2nd anniversary) that will be out soon.

    You're gonna wanna get on the hype train at "good IPA" station, with a quick stop off at "support your local brewery" station before unloading at the final stop..."both are good beers" station.

    I haven't seen it anywhere yet but will be keeping an eye out. I don't know that I'd "skip the hype train" because RuinTen is damn good, but I will certainly be getting the 2nd aniversary double IPL when it comes out too.

    Let's hope its better than the ABCs hype train.

    I rode it out of opportunity. Saw it, jumped on. Was satisfied, not astounded/not disappointed. Jack's Abby puts out consistently good trains?

    Is the analogy dead?

    I prefer the silver bullet train.

    On topic though, I actually liked ABCs.

    Agreed, love me some simcoe hops, especially when it's under $4.

    It's definitely arrived. Grabbed a couple bottles at Marty's big buys in Allston a little while ago.

    Yep - I thought it was really solid and as usual, crazy affordable for a beer with some fairly expensive hops (and a lot of them.)

    I'll also give Ruination 11 a try as well. I thought 10 was decent and well made (though a bit sweet for my liking) - it's definitely on my retry list. Call me a lemming but I think Stone makes some beers that are pretty OK.

    Took another trip up rt1 and nothing. Screw that crap. I'm going to get Heady Topper on Monday and I bet that will be easier.

    Colonial spirits acton has it. You can email patrick to request one bottle to pick up tomorrow after 1pm. That is all I know.

    I think it JUST got here, IMHO it is worth seeking out. Ruinten is easily one of Stone's best hoppy offerings.

    I'm on the North Shore and Quality Liquors in Salem, Bogie's in Beverly and Craft Beer Cellar in Belmont all got RuinTen in yesterday. I had a bottle last night and it was magnificent.
