Fast user switching with Devise
Ever wondered how to login as another user within Devise?
Recently we had a feature request that would provide Admins with the ability
to sign is as another user. You could imagine live demonstrations or even production

#
# exception_notify { clear_payments }
def exception_notify
yield
rescue Exception => exception
# some experimentation around generating OG, IBU, & SRM for based on beer ingredients
