India Pale Ale (IPA)
History of Filipe Carvalho - Minas Gerais, Brasil
India Pale Ale (IPA) is a beer style that originated in the United Kingdom but was widely popularized in the United States. It is known for its strong bitterness and hop aromas, which range from citrus to floral. There are several subcategories, including American IPA, Double IPA (Imperial IPA), and Session IPA, each with different levels of bitterness and alcohol content. Malts also contribute caramel and bread flavors, balancing the bitterness. IPAs are widely popular in the craft beer scene and pair well with spicy foods, strong cheeses and grilled meats...

Antigamente as cervejas estragavam nas longas viagens de navio. Daí, adicionaram mais lúpulo que também é um conservante natural. IPA é a minha preferida.- by Adriana Beker, Brasil
