सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'caña' is the standard size for a beer. It is small, keeping the beer cold in the warm Spanish climate. In the Basque Country, a small beer is often called a 'zurito' instead of a 'caña'. Madrid is famous for its 'caña' culture, where the beer is poured with a specific amount of foam to keep it fresh. In Andalusia, the 'caña' is often accompanied by a free, generous tapa.
The 'Tapa' Rule
In many places, the tapa is free. Don't be surprised if you get a small plate of olives or chips with your first beer.
Social Mobility
The best part of 'ir de cañas' is moving from bar to bar. Don't stay in one place all night!
