Euro 2008 champion Spain awarded beer
Spain's reward for snapping 44 years without a major title by winning the European Championship ?
Beer ... and lots of it.
The Spanish players will each receive their weight in beer from sponsor Cruzcampo after winning Euro 2008 at Austria and Switzerland in June.
Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina will be the happiest after tipping the scales at 211 pounds, while Villarreal winger Santi Cazorla is the lightest player on the squad at 155 pounds.
The grand total for the 23 players on the roster - the equivalent of 5,200 bottles.
