I know that "IPA" used to just mean ESBs, but then it kind of became its own style in America. Anyway, though, I still find myself wondering...what was the English progenitor to "IPA" as it is known today? And why tf did Americans start calling their insanely bitter and not at all yeasty pale ales "IPA"? Was it just pure pretension

Was the original "IPA" just a really heavily hopped ESB? Pic related?
