U.K. Changes Law to Allow "Almost-Pint" Beers

Pubs Can Now Serve 400-Milliliters Pours Known as "Schooners" in Revision of 1698 Rule.



(AP) LONDON - What's an Englishman to do when a pint seems just a tad too much?

Now the British government has an answer: Pubs will be able to sell what be might be called a near-pint in glasses holding about 400 milliliters - popular in some parts of Australia and known as a schooner.

Under a 1698 law, landlords can currently serve beer only as a pint - a pour of 568 milliliters - or a half or a third of that.

Science Minister David Willetts said Tuesday that rules governing the sale of alcohol would be relaxed in response to health concerns and requests from businesses.

Willetts says drinkers will also be able to buy servings of wine in a 75 milliliter glass. Lawmakers had raised health concerns over the sale of wine only in huge 250 milliliter goblets.

I'm not even from the U.K. and even I know that it is common for an Englishman to ask another to go "have a pint"...

That'll be about the same as a 12 ounce beer in the US. 13 US fluid ounces or so.

Can't see anyone buying 1½ mouthfuls of wine either.

I have never heard anybody complain there is too much beer in their pint.

LOL, so instead of just getting rid of the original law with the required size they pass a new law for new sizes.
