    Wow - where to start? Scotch Ales in the 19th century were pale beers, brewer from 100% pale malt. No. 3 was not an IPA, but a type of strong Scotch Ale. It's still brewerd ytoday, but became dark duting the 20th century. The William Younger IPA's were XP and XXP. There were plenty of pale Ales brewed in Scotland before 1830, but not Pale Ales. In fact what we think of as Pale Ale today was hardly brewed anywhere before 1830.

    Source please.

    The amount of beer exported from Scotland before 1800 was minute.
