The 2024 event features several refinements to the programme, including the addition of West Coast-Style India Pale Ale, and Dessert or Pastry Stout (as per their addition to the  2023 Edition US Brewers Association Beer Style Guidelines); and New World Lager being split into Modern Lager and Modern Pilsner.
