285ml in the NT like I quoted before. It also says this which would
suggest such terms also mean less than the 425ml for a schooner
elsewhere in Aus:

"By and large, jugs, pints and schooners are a pretty universally 
 understood size (except in SA), with most of the smaller options 
 often having a name unique to the region."

It assumed everything, and clearly got it all wrong.

Hillarious! You had to ask what a handle of beer is, but now you're
denying what a brewery, and the coroner who first used the phrase,
both say it means. On the basis of an AI response which doesn't
even say specificially where it got its definition from.
