Edit: the 440 on the right, is the last of a can that I bought in a four pack. The 500 on the left, is one of three I bought as singles. Packaged Guinness comes in 440 milliliters. Single cans of Guinness come in 500 mL. Apparently, that's how Guinness does it here in Canada. And apparently, I lazily avoided any attempt to research or apply any level of critical thinking before posting.
