Jackie

A "Jackie" is a British in origin slang word for a can (usually pint sized) of beer, most commonly larger like Stella brand or Carling for example.
It originates from Sunderland, England and is a play on words of "Jackie Chan," the Sunderland accent makes "Chan" sound like "Can." The term can also been seen to be said this way - "Jackie Can." The phrase "Jackie" is most popularly used in the North East of England (hence its origin) and a "Jackie" is a term most used by the elder working class generation of people.
