India Pale Ale (IPA)

India Pale Ale (IPA) is one of the world’s most popular beer styles, known for its bold hop flavor, refreshing bitterness, and aromatic profile. Originally developed in England, IPA was brewed with extra hops to help preserve the beer during long sea voyages to India. Today, it comes in many variations, including American IPA, New England IPA, and Double IPA. Most IPAs have an alcohol content ranging from 5% to 7.5% ABV, although stronger versions can exceed 8%.
