    Just finished a beer fest here in New Jersey. Kept a record of each beer I tried. Added up to 24 samplings which ties my record. What is the most number of beers you have tried at a beer fest?

    In before "I prefer to focus on sampling beers I enjoy rather than drinking as many as possible."

    Last tasting I went to we went through 24 beers, each getting about 2 ounces each. At a fest the most I've done is 23, but the most I've done in one night was at a tasting earlier in the summer. We opened 50 beers but I passed on a few I'd tried already, my final number at night's end was 37.

    Last tasting I attended, I checked 46 beers off my list. My goal was to visit each table 1 time. There were 46 tables with anywhere from 3-6 different beers. I think someone said there were 250+ different beers at the festival that day....good times!

    I volunteered at the Savannah Craft Brew Festival last year, and had 26 different samples - I had multiple pours of those 26 different beers though. I woke up in my bed after a five hour nap and I was still pretty boozed.

    First beer festival.

    Are we talking about different samples or do multiple samples of the same count? If multiples count then shit I dont wanna know the number.

    50ish. Too lazy to check untappd, but these were more like 1 oz pours.

    I finished up in the low 50s at the Jacksonvlle Beerfest last year. Was hoping to hit those kind of numbers at Huna day this year, but we all know how that turned out...

    Fests I've been to seem to not worry about the 2oz or whatever line.
    Usually, you have to tell them to pour you light or you get a fatty pour.
    Which is not always a bad thing.
