My friend just turned 21 and has started talking to me about beers that he liked. He mentioned that a really good one was IPA, which I thought was awesome since that's my favorite style as well. So I brought over some Lagunitas IPAs one day and he got confused, claiming that in the South, they have a brand of beer called Indian Pale Ale and that's what he was referring to. Can anyone confirm this story or am I just gonna have to assume he has no idea what he's talking about here?
A quick search of this site yielded these results: http://www.beeradvocate.com/search/?q=Indian+Pale+Ale Maybe it's this one? http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/12365/26324/
There's a couple that can be searched here: http://www.beeradvocate.com/search/?q=indian+pale+ale&qt=beer Unsure if that's what they're referring to, though.
