Pot glass
A pot glass is a kind of glassware used for drinking beer in Australia. The size of a pot glass is 285mL (approximately 1⁄2 Imperial Pint). In Victoria, a pot is the most common size of drinking vessel for beer, and if you ask for a beer at a pub or bar, a pot is what you will get.
Within various states of Australia, a 285mL glass is also known as a middy, or in South Australia as a schooner, however, anywhere else in Australia, a schooner is considered a 425mL glass.
