The runners at this year's Cheltenham Festival are ready to enjoy an unprecedented amount of Guinness, with estimates that suggest that almost 380,000 pints are embarked, marking an amazing increase of 43 percent with respect to the total of 265,000 last year.

The festival, which begins on Tuesday, will be one of the most lively so far, especially with the first celebrations of the Day of San Patricio on Thursday that is expected to drive an even higher consumption.
While Guinness remains the show star, runners will also resort to around 120,000 beer pints and 10,700 mini bottles of Moet champagne. Even non -drinkers are getting into the action, with an estimated 3,500 paint -free Guinness paint that are enjoyed during the four -day event.
To balance the spree, the festival has an impressive variety of food options, with three miles in food stalls if it is placed from end to end. The improved facilities of this year offer more options, greater interior seats and improved hospitality experiences.
