minus-squareGreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down2·8 months agoA fifth is 750 mL, a pint is 200 mL, and a half pint is 100 mL. I always assumed it was no coincidence that the amounts in mL are so even, but maybe I’m wrong.
minus-squareTurtleTourParty@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·8 months agoA US gallon is 3.785L which makes a fifth 757 ml. A pint is 1/8 gallon so ~473 ml. An imperial gallon is 4.54609L which makes a fifth 909ml and a pint 568ml. If your bartender is giving you 200ml pints you’re really getting ripped off.
