    So far, for me it is 30 at Logger's Pizza in Roseburg....not to mention they are opening a tap room August 1st.

    You?

    Yard House in Yonkers, 130 on tap, but that does include some macros.

    I think it's actually 116, but they're usually out of a dozen things at any given time.

    What he said. Though I thought it was a few more than 100. Either way its quite a sight.

    Yeah the Yard House in VB has roughly 135 I think? About 15 of them are worth it....5 bucks for a pint of PBR? Suck a fat one.

    I see it every time I walk into work...120 taps at Yard House. The most "obscure" beers they carry are Stone Sublimely Self Righteous, Weyerbacher Double Simcoe and NC Old Rasputin (nitro-pour) so it's definitely quantity over quality, but still.

    Probably Yard House, although more than half are pretty mediocre.

    The thing is, the higher number of taps, the greater chance of lower kick-over, stale beer, etc. Recently, a prominent SoCal craft beer guy (sorry, can't remember who) said the optimal number of taps is 24--enough for a variety of styles but low enough to have to change kegs frequently.

    My favorite around my area is Cogan's Pizza in Norfolk...they have 30 to 35 if I remember correctly, are always rotating through some really solid beers, have great food and even better drink specials. Can't go wrong with Aventinus on draft.

    Holy cow!! I guess I thought 30 was pretty good for a town of a little over 20k people. I can't fathom seeing over 100 beers to choose from.

    I don't know how any place can have 100 taps. That's crazy!

    iTap is the best around here with 40 on tap.

    Beer Authority in NYC has around 100. It's weird to see so many taps, especially since they're all plain silver, non-decorative. I always like the decorative taps better but 100+ options is pretty sweet.
