yup. i have nothing better to do today...
IPA's are generously hopped, with spicy, floral notes in the nose, India Pale Ales are typically deep gold to amber in color, and boast a coveted lingering bitter finish.
Perhaps the classiest beverage in England when clear glass became widely available in the 1700s, and the spearhead for the craft beer movement in the United States, pale ale has unparallelled historical significance in the beer world, and might be the most flavorful, complex, and balanced of the classic session beers.
A generous hop addition aided in balancing the unusually high sulfate content of the ground water used at the first pale ale breweries.
they are also a little more fruity and spicy.

IPAs were created hoppier and highter alcohol, for the sake of perserving it longer.
Why you ask??? To make the long boat ride from england to...... India.
Same thing with Imperial stouts, why I forget where they shipped them

(and suggestions contained therein) I tried Ithaca Brewing Co.'s "Flower Power". It was good. A little too fruity for my taste but good nonetheless.
I wanna try some of that Pipeline stuff.

IMHO the coffee-ness of that beer only serves to enhance the roasted malt flavor that's already there (or, SHOULD be there) in most porters and stouts. Dark roasted barley is very similar to roasted coffee in character and flavor. In other words, yeah, it helps to like coffee, but even if you're on the fence about coffee but a big fan of porters, you should try it anyways.
Goes awesome with dark chocolate!
