It's good to see another Stone Fan. They are probably my favorite brewery.
I have a Ruination Clone in AG that I could convert to extract for you....but I have no Levitation. Sorry

I'm going to agree with Couevas recipes, as a starting point. You gotta show some restraint with the Chocolate or it will overpower the whole scene. I might go even skinnier on it.

That's levitation, homes!

I know, it will have a heavy roasty flavor. However, I was reading reviews on it and from memory, I remember it being a little sweet and quite roasty.

I dig it. My BIL just moved to San Diego and has been Stoning like a madman. I think if they had better water to work with their stuff could be best in class.
