568ml, as god intended. Not some 450ml abomination!

We don't really use pints for measuring anything else these days.

And of course 4 quarts to the gallon and two pints to the quart.

Otherwise like in the US in what is commonly known as the English system there is only 3785 mL to the gallon.

The metric pint?

When they pour 500 mL into your 1 pint (473 mL) glass.
