As a beverage consultant for 35 years, I always trained restaurant management that the first glass. 6oz should pay for the 24oz bottle. It appears that here in the villages that they use this pricing plan on their 1.5l, 48oz, bottles, usually Mondavi Woodbridge, Stella, or Barefoot, Big profit margin.

The heavy beer glasses, less prone to breakage, are usually of the pint size but only contain 14oz. So, quantity wise you usually get about 12oz of beer plus 2oz of a foamy head for you pint purchase. European pints are 20oz.

Well liquors generic shots of 1.5oz, 16 per bottle, are an even bigger profit maker, where the first drink or so usually pays for the bottle.
