Beethoven's Symphony
no. 5It'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.

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

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