   IPA is short for Indian Pale Ale. This beer was brewed for shipment to
India from the UK prior to refrigeration. To keep the beer from spoiling, the
alcohol content was increased as was a the hop level (hops are a natural
preservative). What you end up with is a stronger, hoppier Pale Ale, often
with an oak finish due to the long time the ale was originally kept in oak
shipping kegs (now simulated by using oak chips in the brewing process).

Sir Gareth,

The relationship most facts have with reality is anything but close, imho.
Especially on the 'Net.

Perhaps my salient humor overshadowed the statement that casein was the
substance in milk products which relieved the burn.   Most of the discussion
I recall attributes it to the fat content.  In which case non-fat yogurt or
milk wouldn't work.  But non-fat bread works.  Does buttered bread work
better?

'IPA'?  Isopropyl alcohol?  Yankee for Inglish Pale Ale?  I Preach
Abstinence?
