Talk:Australian English terms for food and drink

SA Pints
In SA, the larger pint is usually referred to away from the bar as an 'imperial pint' or a 'uk pint' (as opposed to a 'sa pint' or 'us pint'), although when you order the beer, it's just a pint. What you get depends more on the particular pub than the origin of the brand of beer. i.e. a british pub will generally serve 'uk pints' of any draught beer ordered by the pint, be it british/irish or otherwise.

425ml is in no way 'formerly used', it is by far the most common 'pint' size.

In the preceeding section, while mentioning 'cheap wine', it could probably also mention 'cask wine' - referred to i think as 'boxed wine' in usa.


 * ...Goon ... A SA pint ... i.e. a schooner is somewhat short of a US pint being 15 Imperial ounces rounded down to the nearest 5 ml whilst the latter is 16 US ounces which are larger to start with. The works out to to be about an ounce and a half ... that's roughly 10%. Jimp 16:55, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Two tables don't match
it woudl be nice if the table of beer volumes was in line with the similiar table on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_beer Anyone care to copy it across?81.109.165.97 10:41, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I've found a better solution than copying it across. I've merged the two into a new template.  As for the discrepancies, the volumes was only one but see the talk page. Jimp 03:14, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
