What isn't beer is an IPA. For those unfamiliar with the origins of IPA, it is what the British used to brew for their troops in India when it was part of the colonies. The recipe was developed so that the brewing process would incorporate the time it took to travel from England to India whether on a ship or the back of a horse, elephant or camel.
Using the same recipe for modern day brewing doesn't quite work the same. Then again, I've never been terribly fond of some of the English-brewed bitter ales, so my taste/opinion might be slightly slanted
