Known for consuming an impressive 14 pints a day, Reg's passion for the golden nectar is evident as he stands proudly in his shop surrounded by various items, including the iconic yard of ale glass. With its long and slender shape holding approximately three pints of beer, the yard of ale has become synonymous with drinking competitions and camaraderie among friends. As Reg takes on this formidable challenge, one can only imagine the anticipation building within him. Will he conquer this legendary vessel or succumb to its daunting capacity?
