Zeno’s Pub is a craft beer bar in downtown State College, Pennsylvania, they always have a good selection of beers on tap which are rotated regularly and in addition to this they also have a wide selection of bottled beers. On Saturday September 28th, 2013, they held a Kitchen Sink Fest which was $25 for 25 x 3oz pours. French fries were free during the event and food specials were also available such as $4 pulled pork sandwiches.
The event was held between 1p to 8pm and was organized into three service stations:
- The Main Room – 39 bottled beers, up to 10 pours.
- The Pool Room – 41 bottled beers, up to 10 pours.
- The Bar – 28 draft beers, up to 5 pours.
The range of beers was diverse in both styles and countries of origin including USA, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, UK and more. Between the 2 of us we managed to sample about 48 beers which with some being 10% and over was no mean feat…!
