: I understand that the 1/2 oz. glass that looks like a 1 oz. glass on the outside was no mistake. Some bartenders used the glass to mix drinks and cheat the customer in the amount of liquor that was in the drink. Hence, it is known as a "cheater glass".
Thanks, Ken. I wonder if this is still going on?? Considering some of the bar drinks I've had from time to time, I wouldn't be surprised!
