Keeping your tastebuds sharp

Cleanse your palate all you want, fatigue is inevitable. Stay hydrated, have some food and enjoy.

 

Drink plenty of H2O and eating pretzels will help

 

Saltless crackers help too

 

Don't drink for a week prior.

 

As Kazoobrew suggested, ensure you drink plenty of water. Probably a good idea to carry along a few bottlesto have on the bus. As for food, that helps, but use either unsalted crackers, unsalted bread, or unsalted pretzels to cleanse the palate. Some might suggest salted food, cheese or other food items, but the problem is they they may taste good with the beer, but they don't cleanse the palate. They change it but they don't reset to give you close to a fresh start on the next round of beer.

 

Yeah... Water and food. I thought otherwise on my first beer fest... what a disaster.
