Favorite style of micro brew beer - India Pale Ale
The story behind India Pale Ales...
Transporting beer by boat from England to India caused the beer to spoil.
By making beer with more hops in it, the beer was able to voyage by ship
to India without spoiling. The hops preserved it.
Hops give beer a stronger taste. Over time the stronger taste became popular.
