You can go with Devise in combination with Omniauth or use Omniauth on its own building your own authentication. You need to decide whether you want local+remote sign-up or remote sign-up only. I did both recently and wrote articles about it:
Devise + Omniauth: http://communityguides.heroku.com/articles/11
Omniauth, includes full code on Github: http://communityguides.heroku.com/articles/16

Edit: Regarding local sign-up – you might use myopenid as a replacement and send users over there if they do not have or do not want a Twitter/FB/Google account…
