I'd have to check my list for the exact count, but something in the neighborhood of 28-32. 

Grew up on the East coast, so everything south of Pennsylvania including Gulf Coast. Picked up some midwest in my travels (Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin) Then drove cross country to Oregon and picked up quite a few on the way Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho.  Then the whole west coast Washington and California shortly after I moved out here.  Now that I live on the West coast hope to pick up Alaska and/or Hawaii fairly soon. 

I want to hit all 50 but I have a hard time finding a reason to visit North Dakota.
Prairie Rose Meadery in Fargo will be reason enough for me to travel trough again.
Check out the badlands and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Quite beautiful.  The Laughing Sun Brewing CO. In Bismarck is awesome also!

As a pilot I see lots of airports.  For me it is 48 States.  Looks like we must not fly much to Delaware or West Virginia.

Those are both awesome suggestions.  The Meadery definitely sounds good and Fargo is well... Fargo. 

When I think of the Badlands I always think of South Dakota.  Am I wrong or does it stretch through both? South Dakota has some interesting stuff I was just struggling with North.  But I like these ideas for sure.

There is an area in both. Different areas both beautiful.  Medora ND where the badlands are is a nice place to stay.

Looks like 27 for me however a lot of those are drive-throughs that I spent very little time in on road trips. Missing pretty much the entire east coast...

48 for me, only missing Alaska and Hawaii. 

Unfortunately, most of that travel was done before I discovered good beer.
