As big of an IPA fan as you are, I'm surprised this was your first Stone product. They were on the forefront of the lets make the biggest, most in your face IPA possible movement. About 5 years ago they released a 10th anniversary Ruination that was just intended to be a one off niche product, but became so popular that they produce it annually. Goes by the name Ruinten now. Look for it next fall. It's a monster though, so be warned. I want to say they doubled the amount of hops relative to the ruination and the abv is around 11%.
