Question: 1 / 400

Which beer style is considered to have originated in America?

Best Bitter

Double IPA

The Double IPA is recognized as a beer style that originated in America, particularly in the craft beer movement in the late 20th century. This style evolved from the traditional India Pale Ale (IPA), which was initially developed in England. American brewers began experimenting with hop varieties and brewing techniques that highlighted the bold, aromatic qualities of hops. The term "Double" indicates a higher alcohol content and increased hop bitterness compared to a standard IPA, making it a distinctive creation rooted in the American craft brewing culture.

While the other styles have historical ties to other countries—Best Bitter and Oatmeal Stout to England, and Saison to Belgium—the Double IPA stands out as a product of American innovation within the craft beer scene, reflecting the unique preferences and brewing practices that emerged in the United States.
