A glass for a large measure of sherry (8)

I believe the answer is:

schooner

(Other definitions for schooner that I've seen before include "wooden vessel" , "Old sailing vessel and large glass" , "9 [CONTAINER" , "Large beer or sherry glass" , "Measure for sherry or kind of sailing ship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
