1 and 1/3 beers each, for every 3 beers you drink, just add one. So if you drink 6 tallies, you have really had 8 beers.

Tall cans are usually 1 pint 8 fluid ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pint, in other words 24 ounces total. Or a "deuce" or a 24 ounce I think it is called.

A beer can is 12 ounces. There are 2 beers in 1 tall can from my math.

Don't make me go out in the garage and look at empty beer cans.

^Not always. Most of the time "tall boys" are 16oz's and then "duecers" are 24oz's

What he said.

For every 3 tall cans you drink, you've actually had four 12 ounce cans.

A standard tall can is 500ml, some are a bit less. So if you have four tall boyz that is 2000ml.
A regular can is 355ml, so a six pack is 2,130ml. So four tall boys is almost like a six pack.

The stupid thing is that alcohol content has a shit load more to do with beer than the amount you drink. Its a shame most american beers don't post alc % by volume.

Is no one else appalled at this kids math skills? After being told how many ounces were in a tall boy he still guessed there was 16 regular beers in 8 tall boys. Seriously?! You better be in the 3rd grade.
