German Glass
German beer glasses – anybody know what the different sizes are known in Bavaria and Austria?
I'd really like to know German so the Bavarians and Austrians call their beer glasses of various sizes. I guess there are different names for the 330ml, the pint, liter, and and for oversized sunglasses that typically appear in images of the Oktoberfest in Munich. My German dictionary seems useless for this issue, so we would grateful for any help.
In Austria, the most important are "Seiderl" (0.33 liters, also writes or Seidel Seidl) and "Krügerl" or "Halbe" depending on where you are in Austria (0.5 liters). There are also "Pfiff" which is even smaller than a Seiderl, I think it might be 0.2 or 0.25 liters. And of course a "mass", 1 liter, such as dealing in the Bavarian Oktoberfest.
