It's an impressive 23/24 list 
I've not got started this year (listing, rather than drinking), but I'm off to a beer festival tonight so should add quite a few.  Although it's possible I may not remember what they all were.

One of my favourite things about beer festivals was how I would mark-up the beer list with comments and notes at the start, but by the last few there 'might' be a tick.

Same for me - or some sort of squiggle that could have meant a) fantastic - beer of the night or b) terrible - remember to never touch again or indeed anything in between

That's right. I can see I sometimes do that, so I am making a point of trying not to ignore a beer I like. The Manchester pub sce e is such that the turnover of beers is huge, and it is only the big 3 or 4 brewers that punt out regular brews. Where my list might change and narrow is in bottles and cans I get...
