This week’s question: The 1,204 members of a London WhatsApp group called “1 Million Beers” are photographing and documenting every beer they drink until they reach the seven-figure mark. They’re on track to hit that target in 2034. If the group were to write a book chronicling the ups and downs of their boozy challenge, what should it be titled?
THE WINNER: “The Record Book of Guinness”
