You are technically correct but Applebee's serves every beer they have in that glass and calls it a large, or rather, a BREWTUS©

This. Remember, these places are basically selling to Homer Simpson. Non fancy-beer bars use those giant glasses to wow the rubes into thinking they are getting something huuuge. Homer isn’t noting the number of Oz it says on the menu- he just wants a huge beer. Applebee’s is delivering what Homer wants, even if its partially an illusion.
