Yeah, it's listed as an American IPA. So put Ft. George 3-Way IPA in its place.


I've always wondered about this. So is any IPA over 8% called an Imperial or DIPA?

Looking some some of yall's lists, I need to find a way to get my hands on more IPAs.

By BJCP guidelines, anything over 7.5% is considered to be double/imperial.

You can look at the BJCP style guidelines to get a general idea for typical metrics. They should be releasing updated guidelines soon.

Lawsons lists Sip of Sunshine as an IPA on their can, so that is what I'm going by
