In Canada here, in my experience, at the pub beer comes as pints (22 UK fl. oz.), half-pints (12 UK fl. oz. -- yes, it's not really one half of a pint), sometimes as "schooners" (16 UK fl. oz.)*, and various bottles (341 ml, 500 ml) and cans (not sure, 355 ml?, plus some bigger ones).
* I've only seen this in BC, and it's rare enough that I'm not sure about it.
