minus-squareLemmist@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down1·2 months agoWere American cans of normal sizes, not American ones? Or Canada uses the Imperial system for beer?
minus-squarecygnus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25arrow-down1·edit-22 months agoImperial. Our cans are 355 ml (12oz) or 473ml (16oz / 1 pint) whereas European ones are generally 330ml and 500ml.
minus-squareChriin@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up11·2 months agoOh European ones are 500ml I always thought it was only because of shrinkflation that those became smaller. TIL
minus-squarecygnus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·edit-22 months agoNope, it’s a standard pint, same as you’d get in an English pub! Same deal with those 946ml containers which are a quart, not a shrinkflated litre.
minus-squareChaosInstructor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·2 months agoa British pint is 568mL
minus-squareAgent641@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 months agoAustralian pint is 570ml. Those last 2 ml are the worst tho.

minus-squareAgent641@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoThey barely count as Australian though.

minus-squarecygnus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·edit-22 months agoOops, right, 20oz. I always forget that. Canada often has both sizes on tap.
minus-squaregarbagebagel@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoExcept most of us will call one a real pint and the other an American pint, lol
minus-squarechonglibloodsport@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·2 months agoI much prefer smaller beer cans (330ml or 355ml) over the 500ml and up. I find that I do not drink a beer fast enough for the large can. Having the last 1/3 of the beer be warm and flat is a major turn off!
minus-squaresomeguy3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 months agoThat’s why ze Germans have those mugs with the lid. I think anyway.
minus-squareHikingVet@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoWe use a mix of the 2 systems. The cans are 355ml for normal size. Tall boys depend on the company.
Were American cans of normal sizes, not American ones? Or Canada uses the Imperial system for beer?
Imperial. Our cans are 355 ml (12oz) or 473ml (16oz / 1 pint) whereas European ones are generally 330ml and 500ml.

half a pint, and a full pint.
