Someone said in another comment that 440 ml is the default multipack can for the UK and that can plus contents add up to 1 lb that way. I don’t know if this is true. I could see US beer imported via UK being a thing though.
Edit: And if you mean whether I would expect 470 ml over 500 ml, then no. 500 ml is very much the European standard can.
I specifically meant imports, as they tend to use the same shelving and cooler infrastructure for the cans we have. But I don’t seek out a lot of imports myself.
A lot of imported beers come in 440 ml cans. US ones in particular. But I agree that it feels scammy, because we expect them to be 500 ml.
Wouldn’t you expect them to be like 470 ml ~16 oz? 500 us closer to 17, and 440 is a strange ~15 odd ml
