Disambiguation: a "mutchkin" can also refer a close-fitting Scottish cap.
The mutchkin (Scottish Gaelic: mùisgein) was a Scottish unit of liquid volume measurement that was in use from at least 1661 (and possibly as early as the 15th century) until the late 19th century, approximately equivalent to 424 mL, or roughly 3⁄4 imperial pint.
The word was derived from mutse – a mid 15th-century Dutch measure of beer or wine.
