Tally’s Take
A hazy New England IPA winning the cask category is a genuinely odd result, and a telling one. Cask has spent forty years being defended as the home of traditional bitter, and the top award just went to a modern hoppy beer served the traditional way. The format outlived the argument about what belongs in it.
