Three - unless the beer is poured in faster than it can exit through the pipes in One - in which case One will fill first.

Noooo, 3 can't fill because it will leak before it is full. Surely! Oh, I see your point as I type, 3 definitely, I think.

None. The first thing you would do is drink the beer. Duh.

This is a dickish puzzle - the blocked pipes turn it from being a proper physics question into a ner-ner-ner-ner-ner trick. I'm out.

None. Assuming the bottle holds the same volume as one glass, some of the liquid will remain in glass one below the opening to glass 3.
Although that answer doesn't hold if you have unlimited liquid to pour.
