Pubs across Buckinghamshire have helped make history by taking part in a national world record attempt.

Together with 114 pubs and breweries from around the UK, including the Eight Belles Bletchley, the Cherry Tree Flackwell Heath, the Galleon Old Wolverton, and the Eagle Amersham, they set the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the most people pulling a pint online simultaneously.

The 'Big Pour' happened on Monday, and the record attempt saw the Buckinghamshire pubs, alongside pubs from across the nation come together on a mass video call to pour pints of Heineken 0.0% and Heineken in sync, all under the watchful eyes of an official Guinness World Records adjudicator.

The attempt was to celebrate the installation of Heineken 0.0’s 1,000th tap.

Lawson Mountstevens, Managing Director Star Pub at Heineken UK said: “Part of the ritual of going to the pub is watching your pint being freshly poured from the tap -the tilt of the glass, the smooth cascade, and mouthwatering anticipation of the first sip.

This draught experience is central to pub culture, and for non-alcoholic beer to become truly mainstream, it needs to be part of that experience."
