Heart of Cascadia began in 2013 as a style competition focused on "Cascadian Dark Ale" and "Northwest Red Ale" - two styles who have taken root in the Pacific Northwest. Now we have expanded to all IPA styles, all the styles in the 2021 guidelines, newer styles defined by commercial trends, and any specialty IPAs you can dream up. If it is recognizable as an IPA in its hopping and overall character we will judge it.
