I actually didn't realise that it was coming up with theculinarybrewer.

You are spot on. Sure there needs to be consistency in measures and while 6 mls is not the end of the world I realise that any error needs to be picked up. I was just surprised at the 'font page' nature of the story for the degree of the 'crime'. <BR/><BR/>As to the wedding beer - that's just not right. That's where Consumer Cops need to come in hard with capsicum spray cans filled with warm Fourex and 'mace' the bastards.You can switch Hahn Premium for Cascade Premium - but never, ever, ever premium for light beer.<BR/><BR/>Finally, for those who don't know, the whole schmiddie thing is a story in itself and I need to do some more research and post a blurb in the near future. It's a change in glassware to a measure that is in between a schooner and a middie - but I don't know all the ins and outs yet. Tim, I might call on you for some info shortly.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>Prof. PilsnerBeer Blokeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04934635864972515138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8689420909032124637.post-24545898120705404462008-10-21T20:00:00.000+11:002008-10-21T20:00:00.000+11:00I can understand this issue to a point, but its st...I can understand this issue to a point, but its still a bit silly. In the UK CAMRA have a big beef over short measures, and occationally your in a round and someone will ask you to get their beer topped up. Its a little embarresing. Fair enough if it sa common problem and all the beers are short, but not just the one off!<BR/>I have also noticed at more than one wedding at the Sydney Mercure Hotel (near the Airport) that before dinner the beer was Hahn Premium, but suddenly after dinner teh 'Hahn Premium' which was being served suddenly became Hahn Premium lught. This is a bigger sin!<BR/>You don't want to get me started on schmiddies!<BR/>I think beer glass sizes need to become regulated again - how can an establishment justify charging schooner prices for a schmiddie?Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11979252489432311435noreply@blogger.com
