    Yard House in Raleigh 130, and surprisingly an abysmal line up of average to good IPA's.

    Austin has a bunch...

    Banger's Sausage House - 103 taps
    Draught House - 72 taps
    Whip In - 72 taps
    Craft Pride - 60 taps (all Texas craft beer)

    ... probably 5 more have 40+. And they're all jam packed. Also, Craft Pride and Banger's are practically right next to each other.

    100+ is a bit much. Banger's has a 2-sided legal-sized seasonal tap menu and another 2-sided 8x10 menu of limited beers. That much selection hurts my brain a bit, lol.

    McLadden's in North Hampton, MA has 100+, but it is a chain like the Yard House

    Not on tap. I think that includes bottles. Still a huge selection though.

    Beers of the World is great on sheer selection alone. They are quite overpriced, however, and tend to not rotate their stock very well, which leads to old, faded IPAs. Nathaniel's Corner Square Store is much better in my opinion.

    Publick House's 30+ taps are also very well chosen. I'll take that over Yard House's 100 every time.

    The Falling Rock Tap House has 80'ish, although too many of them are IPA's for my tastes. Still, they don't have any macros at all. Hell, they don't even carry Sam Adams.

    The Mayor of Old Town in Ft. Collins has 100 with a big focus on local CO taps.

    I've seen Yard Houses with more, but you can cancel out at least 20 of those considering what the taps actually are.

    Pretty good for a small town like Roseburg.

    The place with the most taps I've been to is tha Tap House in Seattle at 160, which includes every BMC beer known to man. Very much quantity over quality IMHO.

    Manito Tap House, local place in Spokane has 50, no BMC.

    Plus five hand pumped casks and, plus or minus, 1200 bottles (per their website; I didn't count.)

    A new Doherty's Ale House just opened up near me with 124 taps and mostly high quality. I'd say at most, there were only 5 macros. There is also a great focus on local stuff which is always nice in my book

    Tribes alehouse in tinley park (Chicago burbs) has 50 taps. Not that impressive compared to some of the places others in this thread have posted but they regularly have special tappings of limited release stuff. In the last couple of months they've had kbs twice, parabola, sucaba, and doom to name a few.

    I agree that Yard House is definitely quantity over quality which would bother me if I ever went there. I think my favorite spot is the Avenue Pub which has 47 rotating taps with a good variety, especially for Louisiana. Plus they always get special kegs that no other place in town seems to have. Here is their current beer list: http://theavenuepub.com/beer-spirits/big-beer-list
