One of the reasons I wanted to add Bennigan's was their Copper Clover International Beer Quest.
To sum this up, they give you a Copper Clover card and as you drink their various beers, they keep track of what you have tried in their computer system.
After trying so many different beers, you can achieve "Levels of Educational Achievement" and receive different colored cards and get your name added to a plague at the bar.
The best thing about this is that it is free (except the price of the beer, of course), and they actually have a decent selection of beers. They had Dominion Ale on draft, and Snowballs Chance from Frederick Brewing Company in bottles when I went.
I believe that in Maryland, you also receive prizes such as t-shirts and what-not after trying so many beers. Virginia laws do not allow this.
Also, no matter what Bennigan's you go to, they can track what you have had, and even print out a list for you.
