A former Prime Minister of Australia held a world record for drinking beer!

If you know beer, then you’ve probably heard of yard glasses, also known as yards of ale. For those who don’t, they’re tall beer glasses used to drink about 1.4 liters of beer. The glass is about 1 yard long, hence the name.

Of course, since it’s a large amount of beer, people often compete to see who can drink all of it the fastest. The current world record for drinking a yard of ale is 5 seconds. Interestingly, former Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke was the previous world record holder. Hawke once drank it in eleven seconds as part of a traditional Oxford college penalty.
