Ruination Keg Kicks in 58 minutes!!

The Gaslight set a new pub and state record for dispensing real ale on March 15
when a firkin of Stone Ruination was emptied in 58 minutes and 34 seconds!  Eighty-
two pints of this rare treat were pulled in rapid succession to the delight of a standing
room only crowd.  Proprietor Dan Soboti, who was responsible for securing the only
cask of Ruination available east of the Mississippi, fittingly had the last glass as
bartender Jeff Levine raised the empty firkin above his head to wild cheering.  It was
indeed a special night that real ale lovers will long remember.
