The Australian schooner beer measure (2/3 of a pint) has been legalised in the UK. It's bizarre that a glass size is regulated.

These smaller measures (schooners, pots, midis etc) make sense in Australia because of the heat. Do they have a role in the UK or Ireland ?

Most people don't get that they are the same size as along neck beer, but others appreciate having more than a glass (@ 284ml) but less than a pint. It's even better for the people who are in to try as many beers as possible without having to drink form a mini pint glass. I say Yay
