Sounds like they are ripping off flying saucer thing, but I am sure there are more places that do the same thing. I think Taco Mac in chattanooga does it too.

Taco Mac does it, and a few others. One of the local bars here has about 150 beers on tap, and over 700 overall. I made the first level of 100 drafts and threw in the towel. It got to be a hassle finding something I hadn't drank. There are three guys and one female that have done over 500, which is impressive.

Here is a pic which shows about half the taps. They also do a vodka passport club, which is insane.

Most places, there is no time limit. Taco Mac limits how many you can have in one sitting. Stupid political correctness.

OC's been doing that for years, its not new

A great way to drink a lot of shitty beers. I honestly thing that the tour is the only way they can sell a lot of them!

You can only add 4 or so per visit. Can't remember the exact number, and there are certain ones you have to drink.

Yup.

They also do seasonal "mini-tours" with the seasonal beers.
Right now they should be doing irish beers with St. Patty's coming up.
Usually around 12 beers to complete a mini.

Old Chicago also does that here. We also have a place called World of Beers that has something similar. They give you different crap as you go along, but once you reach 500 different beers they throw you a party and give you $250 toward your bar tab that night. You can also have them print you out a report at any time giving you the list of beers you have already had.
