About American IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a American IPA?

IPAs are hop-forward ales with 5.5–7.5% ABV and IBU 40–70+. Bold hop aroma — citrus, tropical, resinous — with firm bitterness and a dry, clean finish.

Finding a similar American IPA

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same hoppy, clean, crisp character as Dippity Do will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.

Aroma

The nose leads with clean citrus and herbal hop notes, characteristic of noble Edelhopfen varieties, with subtle floral undertones. A light malty foundation emerges beneath, offering minimal grain sweetness and allowing the hoppy character to remain the primary driver of the aromatic profile.
