    750ml....I like to sit back, talk with my wife and take 2-3 hours to down a bomber.

    Bomber, hands down. Perfect size for me.

    16oz/500ml are my favorite sometimes with bigger abv brews it gets a bit taxing, anything else its nice to have a few "top off" oz's.

    I think it really depends on the beer, and my mood. Typically 12 or 16 oz is enough for a high abv I'm trying to take on by myself but I've been known to take down a whole bomber of bcbcs alone so you probably shouldn't listen to me...

    I enjoy 16 oz cans a lot. I don't have a favorite serving size though. It's very rare I have just one beer. I'm not afraid to have 2 maybe 4 beers in an evening that dare I say may not be session beers(GASP!) Some of you guys are like ladies on diets counting out only 7 kernals of popcorn to consume. God forbid you indulge at all.

    As has been said, style is a big factor. The bigger the beer, the smaller the format is preferred for me, as well as a sour. I do love a bomber for sharing, though!

    All in all 12 oz is fine, 16 oz is better, but I'll take a good beer however it comes, and down my throat-hole please!

    E) None of the above. Sours that come in 375ml are my favorite :slight_smile:

    16 oz. tallboy cans, or the slightly larger 500 mL European equivalent. They're about the right size for most of my glasses.

    Depends on the brew, I suppose. On a hot day (Queensland, Australia here), 375mL cans of mid are good. For anything else, 355mL suits me fine. Can do a 6-pack pretty easy.

    At a bar a pint, anywhere else 12oz.

    16 oz or 500 ml in a closed container, an Imperial pint at the local watering hole. Makes it easier to have multiple selections of an evening, yet still enough to truly enjoy the one in hand.
