Tired of getting screwed out of that 2oz. in your pint of beer?
House Bill 3122, better known as the “Honest Pint Act,” passed the House by a 34-26 vote on Thursday. The law allows businesses serving draft beer to post state-issued stickers if their pints measure up to 16 ounces, or a full U.S. pint.
The movement to recognize Oregon establishments that aren’t skimping on pint service was begun by Jeff Alworth, a beer blogger who petitioned to make honest pints an issue for state regulators of standards and measurements.
Some establishments serve beer in 13 or 14 ounce glasses but charge customers “per pint” of beer.
