Session IPA

The most common explanation for the term Session IPA dates back to the
days of WWI-era England when workers drank on the job. Workers were
allowed two drinking periods or “sessions” of 4 hours each workday.
This called for a lighter beer than your usual stout or porter, allowing
workers to drink more beer without getting too drunk to perform their duties.
