    Yeah, the Guinness pint is now 14.9 fucking ounces in the US. Relatives of mine in Ireland confirmed that if they did that shit there, they’d have another rebellion.

      If I’m not mistaken, the guinness can is the same size as other US pint (16 oz) cans, but there is less beer volume because of the widget.
