The SA Pint has been around for since 1948 & just because you Mexicans call it a Schooner doesn't really bother us. Call it what you will, I have travelled Australia extensively & I don't give a Monkey's what the beer glass size is called as long as it is cold & tastes good. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not fussed about it either just funny to say something like you always do about a certain green beer. Think its red now too or Marone? or blood orange?

If I had finished work for the day I didn't care, but as you know a lot of the Serviceman's Clubs quite often had a Happy Hour & if you bothered to become a member it would qualify you to get a 10-20% discount which is pretty dangerous if you are staying the night. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBillett09 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Pinched from Wikipedia, quick reference to what size is what in each state of Australia : ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uhtred Of Beddanburg Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 @NBillett09 yeah classic post that stuff all the time there is always a little bit wrong on it. Tassie pretty much the same as victoria all the old heads that quoted OZ sizes are in the ground. And an 8 Oz glass that apart from the pot is seen more in tassie than a 7 but is not on the list. You would probably be hard pressed to find places that regularly pour anything under a pot these days. Funny how everywhere but SA calls a scooner a scooner but let's be careful and tip toe around saying it. Never been fond of term middy when popular glass sizes are Pot scooner and pint middy is outdated and not a mid size serving at all. A 10 Oz doesn't look anything like a pot you would boil an egg in either but somehow just sounds better Also years ago I was in Sydney CBD and a lot of places have a glass called a Schmidy almost half way between the Middy and scooner 355 ml or 12 Oz yanky size. When I asked what the he'll he said we pretty much charge u the same as a scooner but give u less 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have pretty much had beers in all states & it's just a matter of getting used to it. As long as the beer tastes good. Mind you, there are certain ones to avoid though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBillett09 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 @Uhtred Of Beddanburg @Classic Brewing Co the real correct question is simply “what’s the largest glass I can get? I’ll have that” 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 While I wait for my Norse Ale to condition and the Summer Sesh Ale to ferment it’s time for some Xpa. It is so orange and “chunky”. Tried one a while ago and didn’t like it, but now I really enjoy it. Wish they would sell it in a long neck. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uhtred Of Beddanburg Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Coopers FS Amber Ale 5 months in bottle very nice drop. Good carbonation I pushed the boundaries with carbonation not knowing would store the 3 PET Longnecks so long. The rest of it was kegged and drank in weeks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
