Portuguese term or phrase: Mini
This is what appears in the menu: 'camarão médio + 1 mini'.

It's usually related to beer but I don't know how one should translate it to English, beer mug?

Thank you so much for your help!

small bottle of beer


Explanation:
It is definitely not related with glassware. It is, as Nick said, a 20cl or 25 cl bottle. It is to my knowldge only sold by Portugaç's two largest brewers Super Bock and Sagres

agree  Georgia Morg (X): because a mini is always in a bottle, it's not an "Imperial" (chopp)
