I thought I may as well give you Whitbread's whole range of Pale Ales. No need to thank me, It's just my job.
Below PA in the strength hierarchy was the not very inspiringly named 2PA. Today, it would be about as strong as Bitter gets. Sadly, it wasn’t to be around for much longer. It was discontinued in 1916 and never reappeared.
It hadn’t been around all that long, only appearing in 1888, a good two decades after PA. It was brewed in far greater quantities, though: in 1909, 40,063 barrels to PA's 9,939 barrels. Making it far more likely for you to come across it down the pub.
Which has me wondering: was it a Stock Ale? Were I pushed, I’d go for it being semi-Stock, aged for maybe a couple of months after racking. The gravity just looks too high for it to be a running beer.
No need to mention anything about the recipe, it having been parti-gyled with the PA whose recipe I recently posted (http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com/2021/12/lets-brew-wednesday-1909-whitbread-pa.html).
