By the way, speaking of differences in the English language usage, one of my friends from the UK visited the States and ran into great difficulty when he walked into a bar and ordered "a pint". That would rate either a blank look or the statement, "This isn't a package store", in other words it isn't a Jug & Bottle. In this region, you order "a glass" of a specific brand of beer, usually whatever is on tap. He was visiting below the Mason-Dixon Line, so the standard phrase may be different there, but it certainly isn't "a pint".
