[Warning: Style pedantics ahead.]
Not strictly true: Kinnegar labels it as an "American Wheat Beer", which should lump it in with beauties like Little Sumpin' Sumpin' or Bell's Oberon.
A White IPA is a wit - herb and peel additions included - with lots of hops. I don't think any commercial example have made it to Ireland.
The key difference is the yeast: clean American v spicy Belgian.
In practice, White Rabbit doesn't taste much like any of these, but that's neither here nor there....

Forgot that one because I haven't seen it since the RDS in September. But it is/was lovely: lemon + pepper yeast with lots of fruity hops.
