Dec 14, 2018 at 8:33 comment added Patricio In parts of Spain (at least in Cataluña, I'm not sure about other regions), quinto is more common than botellín and mediana than tercio.

Updated reference to word's RAE status. Minor grammatical fixes.
Oct 5, 2016 at 6:59 comment added user13560 In Spain, in addition to all that has been mentioned, depending on the region and the size (and shape) of the glass, you have also tubo, jarra, tanque, cañón ("a big caña"), etc
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 8:55 comment added MikMik And another word I've heard for beer, though not very commonly, is garimba.
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.
