    In Canada at least, most restaurants serve beer in 18oz glasses unless otherwise stated, so I’m gonna assume that’s what they do in the States too, which I’m guessing is where this meme is from. So 18*14=252oz, which is 7.45L. So basically what you said.

        Yeah, the 18oz “pint” really bugs me, but unfortunately it’s everywhere. It’s an exception if it’s 20oz, not the norm. Last night actually I was at a restaurant that was trying to pass off 17oz as a pint. If it wasn’t so expensive I wouldn’t mind it, but at least where I live, 18oz goes north of $9 most places, it’s crazy. There’s only one restaurant nearby that sells beer at a decent price, so that’s basically the only place I go these days if I want a drink other than at home.
