UK Pints
Definition
A UK pint (imperial pint) is a unit of volume equal to 20 imperial fluid ounces or approximately 568.261 milliliters. It is about 20% larger than a US pint.
History
The imperial pint was established by the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824, which redefined British units based on the imperial gallon (the volume of 10 pounds of water). It replaced various older regional pint measures.
Current use
UK pints are used for draught beer and cider servings in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and some Commonwealth countries. British law requires draught beer to be sold in pint or half-pint measures.
