A white dude who drank IPAs told me that
IPA stands for....
India pale ale. The high hop content stopped it from going off on the boat to India. It's one good thing British colonialism did for the world.
To add, IPA is a style, it does not indicate location of origin of the beer. These are not of the style Pale Ale that were brewed in India.
They were brewed in Britain for the voyage to India. So posh (port out starboard home) people could get shit faced on the journey. Other beers would go funky after being stored for weeks at room temp in the tropics.

genuinely cannot stand IPAs
If you like IPAs, that's fine. If you're buying someone, like me, a beer at karaoke, trust me when I say that I want the cheap Modelo or Milwaukee's Best on tap. Don't buy me an IPA that costs twice as much, but I won't drink it cause it tastes bad.

well deserved shots fired
A new craft brewery opens, the beer list is 3 IPAs, a double hopped IPA, a triple, and a bowl of hops spritzed with bitrex.
In that they are both delicious? I guess that tracks, yeah
Oh, is that what they are? I thought they were just bottled cat piss...
