First are you sure that the cheapest 'beers' are actually 'beer'? In the US the cheapest tend to be 'malt liquor' masqerading as beer without actually claiming to be beer and only saying what they are as small type.
Secondly, regarding your final comment, are you saying that 330ml seems smaller or larger than you would expect?

- joefourier 6y ago330ml would be considered small, the standard size is 500ml. Europeans just drink substantially more. Isn't malt liquor just beer with high alcohol content? I haven't seen that much outside of craft beers, you're probably likelier to get something that's not a traditional beer if you're paying more than if you're paying less.
- maxerickson 6y agoNo hops in malt liquor. I wouldn't say there is much attempt to pass it off, people are buying the cheap stuff because it's cheap, not because they think it's beer.
