Jan 5, 2012 at 13:56 | comment | added | vartec | I'd say that tercio is specifically 33cl bottled beer (you'd wouldn't expect 33cl of keg beer asking for a tercio). Caña is 20cl small glass of keg beer, doble is slightly bigger glass (40cl). | |

Dec 29, 2011 at 8:54 | comment | added | MikMik | Just a note: caña refers to a normal serving of keg beer. But it is quite common to ask for "half servings" (about 125 or 150 cl.) which go by the names of chato de cerveza, zurito, corto and others. | |
