fishing rod
Usage Note
Caña is the everyday Spanish word for a small draft beer, especially in tapas bars across Spain — you ask for una caña rather than una cerveza for the bar-size pour. It also means the stalk of a plant, a fishing rod, or the shin of the leg. In Latin America the beer sense is far less common and cerveza is used instead.
Examples
"Ponme una caña bien fría, por favor."
Natural Translation
Get me a nice cold beer, please.
