When I was bartending in SC we had to serve from airplane bottles. No alcohol could be poured out of a fifth. And it really screwed up drink recipes because the law said you had to use all the contents of the bottle so everything that had multiple liquors (like Long Island Iced Tea) was never quite right. Before we moved they started allowing either free pour or metered guns like ones sodas came out of.
The reason for the change was that more companies were having meetings and conventions in the state and due to the little bottles, drinks were stronger than people were used to. People were getting shit-faced on a couple drinks because they were getting a lot more liquor per drink.
Holy shit, a Long Island made from airline bottles would be insane. That's like a half pint of booze.
