Just a real quick, easy question. How bitter is a beer that has 44 IBU? Is that a lot of bitterness for a standard American Pale Ale?

Thanks!
 
BJCP says 30-45 is within the range for an American Pale Ale. Not that you need to strictly stay in those guidelines, but yes that's about correct for an American Pale Ale.
