Beer. Aaah, that fantastic fluid that’s bonded generations of Australian drinkers. Whether you’re visiting Melbourne, Sydney or Perth, you might be amazed at how the bartender is able to understand the ridiculous orders being thrown at him/her. What on earth is a schooner? Did that person just order a pony? Read on to find out more.
Most Melbournians buy beer off tap by the pot (285ml), much to the confusion of Sydneysiders who are accustomed to the schooner (425ml) or the middy (285ml). We’re a capable bunch compared to older generations, who often swill by the glass (200ml), small (175ml) or pony (140ml). If you're in a group larger than 2 or 3, buying a jug, which holds a bit more than 4 pots, is a more economical choice of purchase.
The can or the short stumpy bottle known as the stubbie is the next best thing. Groups of friends usually take turns to buy a 'round' each. When it's your turn to buy a round, it's also referred to as your 'shout'. Laws around responsible service of alcohol mean that you won’t be able to order a beer if you’re drunk.
