Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.Why are bottle sizes named after kings from the biblical lands?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Why are bottle sizes named after kings from the biblical lands?),it will help you,my kids.
Jeroboam, Rehoboam, Methuselah, Salmanazar, Melchior, Balthazar, Soloman and Nebuchadnezzar.
Answer:
What an interesting question.
My theory is that they have been used for special occasions where a large crowd is sure to drink up the wine.These massive glass containers in varying sizes are very impressive.They are difficult to carry,open and even more difficult to pour.Their sheer size,weight, and presence compared to "standard " 750 ml wine bottles are all reasons why they are named after powerful biblical Kings.
Incidentally if you remember the phrase:
My Judy Really Makes Splendid Belching Noises.
That gives you the initial letter of each size of bottle from the smallest to the largest.
Oh dear i see you had an encyclopaedia for breakfast :)
Complete guess, but maybe it's because monks used to brew beer?
There is a flaw in your argument, Magnum is named after an american tv detective
