Drinking basins of beer

Cold beer is one of the best things about sizzling summers. But how about drinking it out of a basin as quickly as you can?

More than a hundred people participated in basin beer drinking in Wuhan, Hubei province on Aug 9 in which four bottles of beer, or 2,000 ml, was poured into a basin which patrons had to drink up. They split into two teams to drink as much as possible in five minutes.

One man drank a basin of beer in just two minutes. The winning team won by just one basin of beer.
