World record for largest glass of beer could be broken in Texa

While a World Cup match continues in Houston, the Texas Rangers and Budweiser are partnering to attempt to break the world record for the largest glass of beer at Globe Life Field on Saturday.

The two entities, in honor of America’s 250th birthday, will place a 12-foot-tall, 600-gallon glass beer stein on the field’s North Plaza. It will be filled with Budweiser’s American lager ahead of the Rangers game against the Detroit Life Field. 

It is expected to be full at approximately 1:45 p.m., according to a news release by the MLB. A Guinness World Records representative will then need to verify it as a world record.

The current Guinness World Record for the largest glass of beer was set in the United Kingdom in 2014, at 550 gallons. Budweiser is the official American beer sponsor of the MLB.
