Biggest pint of beer-world record set in Timisoara
TIMISOARA, Romania -- Timisoara Cultural Foundation
(managed by Ioan Coriolan Garboni) had build a 6 meters-high
mug beer with a capacity of 11.000 liters, weightin in 2.5
tones-which sets the new world record for the Biggest
pint of beer.
“Timisoara , which is a town with a lot
of premiers, has the oldest beer factory from the south-east
of Europe and one of the oldest from the entire Europe, from
1718. "
"The initiative of the Timisoara
Cultural Foundation was to bring forward the Biggest
pint of beer and we decided to break that Guinness
world record from Malaysia.
At a mug beer of 3 meters-as they have,
we built o double one, for almost 3 tones, from complete stainless
steel, of 6 millimeters grossness”, said Garboni, who is the
manager of the “Banatul” Philharmonic from Timisoara.
Mr. Garboni said that the cost of the Biggest
pint of beer would be 35.000 euros, but, as a matter
of fact the real price was halved, due to the sponsors.
“Its price would be 35.000 euros, but we paid
only the halved price, because we were sponsored with material
by Timisoreana beer factory”, said Garboni.
The Biggest
pint of beer - a 6 meters high construction, which
weights 3 tones- is to be found in 700 Square (in Romanian:
"Piata 700") until September, when it will be moved
in from of the "Timisoreana" beer factory.

a long beer history. One of the oldest beer factory in Europe
and the oldest from Southeastern Europe has been operated
here since 1718.

pint of beer project, supported by the famous mark
