500ml to 440ml?

Edit: the 440 on the right, is the last of a can that I bought in a four pack. The 500 on the left, is one of three I bought as singles.

Packaged Guinness comes in 440 milliliters. Single cans of Guinness come in 500 mL.

Apparently, that’s how Guinness does it here in Canada.

And apparently, I lazily avoided any attempt to research or apply any level of critical thinking before posting.

    Yeah in the US the slogan was “its Australian for beer, mate.”

    And the joke was “it’s Australian for piss, mate.”

    For just an average macro brew lager, I don’t think it’s that bad.

    I also associate Sapporo with Japan, which again is not bad for that type of beer.

      Sapporo is my go too plain beer. It’s not that it’s a great beer, but it’s one of the few mainstream brands that doesn’t taste like mostly sugar. If you can find the imported stuff in the funky can that’s shaped like a glass it’s way better than the North American made stuff.
