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.
Shrinkflation. A pint in Canada is supposed to be 20 oz. In USA it’s 16.

Sheesh. Glad I’m sober these days.
