Question 576

On 4 May 1951, the then managing director of the X Breweries, went on a shooting party in North Slob, by the River Slaney in County Wexford, Ireland. He became involved in an argument over which was the fastest game bird in Europe, the koshin golden plover or the grouse. That evening at Castlebridge House he realized that it was impossible to confirm in reference books whether or not the golden plover was Europe's fastest game bird.

As a result, what did he establish? Identify X.

Answer: Sir Hugh Beaver, managing director of the Guinness(X) Breweries established the Guinness Book Of World Records. Cracked by all.
