I have family up on the GC.
One time ...not at band camp.

I meet up with my uncles at a soccer club .
They put the kegs of beers in the cool room instead of under the bar .
Fuuuu me they were so chilled ...so refreshing.

A “Glass” is actually called a “Pony” in WA to make it more confusing ( or was , I don’t think anyone has used that term for about 40 years )

Edit : Phantom13 still drinks Pony’s with the old diggers

I have never ordered one but I recall some old blokes ordering them.

I don't understand why WA doesn’t have Schooners

Quite a few pubs do and at one stage there was a few pubs that were trying to charge pint prices but only serving schooners

 

[Plugger35]

I used to drink middies in WA but after getting used to drinking pints in the UK they were like drinking shooters when I returned.

The first time I drank a schooner was when I went to Sydney, I asked the bartender for a middie who had no idea what that was.

Pots make sense in the warmer climates so the beer can’t get too warm before you finish it.

Pints in the colder states where it doesn’t make a difference.

Pints in the UK make no sense warm beer lovers.

 

[Gough]

Some English pubs are trialling a 2/3 of a pint at the moment.

I've never drunk Fosters here but I drank it a bit in the UK as it was one of the main tap beers, it wasn't as bad as I expected.

Yeah that was the main reason for drinking middies in WA but we would often get jugs as well which just defeated the purpose.

If you don't drink at a snails pace then pints don't get warm. I've never been a quick drinker (usually 30-45 minutes to drink a pint) and never suffered from it getting warm.

Pint not warm after 45 minutes? Is your local in Antarctica?
