IPA with lager yeast. Is it still an IPA?

[Matt Symonds]

Hey all. W34-70 has popped up a few times lately on some things I been listening to and reading and I see it is being used (successfully) in IPA by some, and Brulosophy did an experiment where the w34-70 beat out the American 05 in their IPA brewed. But in the bjcp there is obviously no category for bottom fermenting IPA’s. Are they actually IPA? or is there a category for a lager with IBU 30-60 and ABV 5-7. Etc etc. I cant see one.

I recently did a split batch so had a chance to use my w34-70 in an ipa. Not yet tasted. What can I call it?
