In England cans of cider are 500 mL. Honestly I don't really think a pint is a unit (except for old people buying milk?), it's a descriptor like "a glass" or "a pitcher" that just happens to have a legally required size. I have an idea roughly how much a pint is but I wouldn't requisition three pints of hydrofluoric acid.
