My beef with Protz ( cant deny he is very knowlegeable about beer)is he writes too many articles about the family brewers of Britain.We know everything there is to know about them and its boring.He still champions the boring bitter brigade rather than the new kids on the block.
I agree. Not all of the new breweries are what you might call "craft". Two near me, ELB & Redemption are almost entirely cask and generally old school. He is widening the schism between younger craft fans and the fossils that refuse to accept that there are much better beers around than those from most of the old independents. His blatant support for Bass should result in his removal as editor. You have to wonder if he's getting a bung from Mouldy Corpse.
