750 ml, enough to get any man wasted, unlike an
eigth/pint which the some of the above people have mistaken to be a fifth, which is about 16 oz which is what youd be seeing people sipping off of. then theres the good old handle which is
1.75 liters

A one fifth of a gallon bottle of alcohol, or
4/5 of
a quart. Previous to the US converting to the
metric system, hard liquor was sold in 1/5 gallon bottles. Slightly larger than the current 750ml, but still used to refer to a 750ml of booze

Beethoven's Symphony
no. 5
It's like calling Yale "New Haven" to separate people who are familiar with the composer (or
the Ivy League school) from those who don't.
Example:
You: "Yeah the fifth was amazing of course but I really love listening to
contemporary composers like
Phillip Glass"
Them: "
The what?"

Example:
Ludacris - "I drank a fifth of
gin", in reality a fifth of alcohol would
knock anyone on their butt.
