From cans, to bottles, to kegs, there\u2019s an option to purchase almost any amount of beer that your heart (or, more accurately, your liver and wallet) desires. Because there are so many keg sizes available, it can be confusing to know exactly how much beer you\u2019re getting when you buy it by the keg to have draft beer at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make comparing the various sizes of kegs easier, we put together this handy guide and some easy to follow infographics.

Large domestic breweries, like Budweiser have automated brewing systems that produce hundreds of BBL per batch. Even large craft breweries like Sierra Nevada can produce over 100 BBL per batch of beer. To be considered a craft brewery in the United States, the brewery must produce less than 6,000,000 barrels of beer per year (which is 186,000,000 US gallons of beer, or about 1,488,000,000 pints for those keeping score).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Microbreweries, a smaller subset of craft breweries, must brew less than 15,000 barrels of beer per year, which is 465,000 US gallons of beer, or about 3,720,000 pints of beer. Microbreweries range some in the batch size they produce. Most range between 30 and 50 BBL systems, but there are microbreweries that brew as little as 1-2 BBL at a time on systems like this. <strong><em>If you want to learn more about the differences between craft beer and domestic beer, click here to check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/2022\/03\/17\/craft-vs-domestic-beer\/\">Guide to Craft Beer vs Domestic Beer vs Imported Beer<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7333874876904419\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7333874876904419\" data-ad-slot=\"5168851069\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/category\/sanke.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Sanke Keg<\/a>?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we get into the sizes of kegs, let\u2019s talk about the overall style. Most of the kegs on this list (and most standard kegs in general), are known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/category\/sanke.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Sanke kegs<\/a>. Sanke kegs or Sankey kegs (short for sanitary key) are the standard stainless steel keg for storing, distributing, and dispensing commercial beer. Snake kegs are generally made from 100% stainless steel. Unlike the kegs commonly used by homebrewers, Sanke beer kegs have a single valve on the top of the keg that allows both the gas to enter the keg and the beer to exit the keg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The opening in the keg allows for a long metal tube, called the spear, to run from the top of the keg where it connects to the draft system to the bottom of the keg where it pulls the beer from. The carbon dioxide (CO2) or Nitrogen flows through the valve into the top of the keg (the headspace) and pushes the beer downward, where it is drawn into the spear and up and out of the keg.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keg taps for Sanke kegs include a special sankey coupler, which is a sanitary key (called a sankey) that opens the special snake valve so that gas can enter the keg and beer can exit the keg through the valve. There are a few different types of couplers for sanke kegs depending on their country of origin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/stainless-steel-sanke-keg-beer-tap-dstyle-prv-1.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">D-Style Sanke Couplers<\/a> are used for sanke kegs from the United States<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/european-sanke-tap-stainless-keg-coupler-sstyle.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">S-Style Sanke Couplers<\/a> are used for most sanke kegs from Europe<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/german-slider-keg-tap-astyle.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">A-Style Sanke Couplers<\/a> are used for most sanke kegs from Germany<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/guinness-tap-ustyle-beer.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">U-Style Sanke Couplers<\/a> are used for some sanke kegs from Europe that the S-style does not work with.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers.png\" alt=\"An infographic showing the four main styles of sanke keg coupler:\nD-Style Sanke Couplers are used for sanke kegs from the United States\nS-Style Sanke Couplers are used for most sanke kegs from Europe\nA-Style Sanke Couplers are used for most sanke kegs from Germany\nU-Style Sanke Couplers are used for some sanke kegs from Europe that the S-style does not work with.\n\" class=\"wp-image-6370 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-624x468.png 624w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers.png\" alt=\"An infographic showing the four main styles of sanke keg coupler:\nD-Style Sanke Couplers are used for sanke kegs from the United States\nS-Style Sanke Couplers are used for most sanke kegs from Europe\nA-Style Sanke Couplers are used for most sanke kegs from Germany\nU-Style Sanke Couplers are used for some sanke kegs from Europe that the S-style does not work with.\n\" class=\"wp-image-6370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Types-of-Sanke-Keg-Couplers-624x468.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7333874876904419\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7333874876904419\" data-ad-slot=\"5168851069\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common Types of Kegs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several common types of kegs, each of which has its own specific size, shape, capacity, and coupler type.

The most commonly seen brand of the many available 5 liter kegs is Heiniken, and the popular 5l Heineken mini keg established these kegs as a commonly available method for serving beer at small parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other brands that distribute their beer in mini kegs, including several popular European beer brands, include Newcastle Brown Ale, Coors Light Lager, Warsteiner Premium Pilsener, Paulaner Oktoberfest Marzen Amber, Widmer Hefeweizen, Heineken Light, Rogue Yellow Snow IPA, Bitburger Premium Pilsner,Spaten Premium Lager, Einbecker Pils, Hofbrau Original, Bell&#8217;s Oberon Ale, and Hofbrau Oktoberfestbier. A larger liquor store should have at least a few options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main drawbacks of mini kegs are that they are intended for one time use and that their availability can be limited. Unlike the other types of kegs on this list, mini kegs are not reusable and are intended to store and serve only the beer that comes with the keg (<a href=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/forums\/topic\/brewing-the-same-beer-3400-miles-apart-2\/#post-5791\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">that is, unless you&#8217;re James!

Unlike most of the types of kegs used by commercial breweries, corny kegs have a removable lid and require few if any special tools. They also have a relatively low cost, including the cost of the lines and quick disconnects needed for home kegerators or keezers.

Pepsi and Coca-Cola products both came in corny kegs. Pepsi opted for a slightly taller and slimmer keg with ball lock posts. Coca-Cola used a slightly shorter, wider keg with pin lock posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/corny-keg-5-gallon-ball-lock.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Ball lock corny kegs<\/a> are the most common type now, and are also the ones that you\u2019re most likely to find available new. While they lack a few advantages of the pin lock (like the inability to accidentally put the disconnects on backwards), they are overall a bit more convenient and inexpensive to maintain. Ball lock corny kegs, like those originally used by Pepsi, are taller and slimmer than pin lock kegs at 25\u201d tall and 85\u201d wide. The posts on a ball lock keg are designed so that the quick disconnects can be pressed on to lock them into place using a set of ball bearings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/corny-keg-pin-lock-5-gal.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Pin lock corny kegs<\/a>, like those used by Coca-Cola, are shorter and have a larger width than ball lock kegs, with a height of about 22\u201d and a width of about 9\u201d. The posts on a pin lock keg have a pin that fits into a channel on the disconnect that locks it into place when the keg is in use. Additionally, pin lock keg posts are different sizes for the gas line and the beer line (2 pins gas in post, 3 pins on the liquid out post). This means that you cannot accidentally put them on backwards, which is a potential hazard of ball lock kegs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/corny-keg-lid.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">buy replacement lids that fit either type of corny keg<\/a> (and the lids are generally interchangeable&nbsp; between the two styles), one big advantage of the original ball lock kegs was a manual pressure release valve in the lid, which allows the user to release the pressure in the keg safely and without any tools. Any homebrewer who kegs will tell you that having a pressure release valve is a great feature for safety and convenience! If you\u2019re going to buy pin lock corny kegs, we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/products\/corny-keg-lid.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">buying one of these replacement lids with a PRV included<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While one isn\u2019t necessarily better than the other, if you\u2019re planning on setting up a home draft system for your homebrew, you\u2019ll need to make sure you get the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.morebeer.com\/category\/ball-lock-fittings.html?a_aid=BrewTogether\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">right quick disconnects<\/a> for the type you purchase. Additionally, make sure you consider the slight difference in dimensions to ensure that the kegs fit in your kegerator or keezer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it\u2019s still possible to find old soda kegs, it has gotten harder to find them over the last decade and&nbsp; most homebrewers now buy new corny kegs.

A half-barrel keg is generally considered to be the standard keg. They are the main keg size used for distribution to bars, taprooms, and restaurants. Half barrel kegs are also often used for home bars (standard kegerators are usually made to work specifically with half barrel kegs), large events, business functions, large parties, and, of course, frat parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Half barrel kegs are the largest standard keg size. A full half keg stands 23\u215c\u201d tall and has a diameter of 16\u215b\u201d. They hold 15.5 gallons (1984 oz), which translates to 124 16-oz pints or about 165\u2153 12-oz bottles or cans. Empty, a half barrel keg weighs about 30 lbs. A full half barrel keg weighs about 160lbs, making them a challenge to carry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchasing a new half barrel keg will set you back about $180. Purchasing beer by the half barrel keg ranges from about $150 &#8211; $200 for domestic beers, while craft options range from about $225 to over $300 on average.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are many nicknames for most of the types of kegs on this list, the half barrel keg is considered to be the full-size keg and the only one consistently known as \u201ckeg\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6435 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-624x468.png 624w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/12-Barrel-Keg-2-624x468.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7333874876904419\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7333874876904419\" data-ad-slot=\"5168851069\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does Beer Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beer comes in all shapes, sizes, and servings of beer. Beer can be commonly bought in cans, bottles, 6-packs, 12-packs, cases of beer, and even different sized stainless steel kegs. For practical purposes beer weighs very close to the same amount per volume as water, so the consideration about how much beer weighs mostly centers around the volume and the weight of the container it is stored in. For example, a full size keg, weigh 30 pounds empty, and hold an additional 130 pounds of beer, making the full keg weight of a half barrel keg 160 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This chart helps make the comparison of how much each of the various size containers of beer weigh empty and full easier:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh.png\" alt=\"An infographic showing the weight of each beer storage vessel including bottles, cans, six packs, 12 packs, cases, and kegs. \" class=\"wp-image-6367 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-624x468.png 624w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh.png\" alt=\"An infographic showing the weight of each beer storage vessel including bottles, cans, six packs, 12 packs, cases, and kegs. \" class=\"wp-image-6367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh.png 1024w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/brewtogether.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/How-Much-Does-Beer-Weigh-624x468.png 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does a Keg of Beer Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several sizes of keg (see the earlier sections of this article for full keg sizing information), each with its own size and weight:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Mini Kegs weigh under 1 lb&nbsp; empty and about 13 lbs filled.<\/li><li>Cornelius Kegs weigh about 10 lbs empty and about 50 lbs filled.<\/li><li>Sixth Barrel Kegs weigh about 14 lbs empty and about 58 lbs filled.<\/li><li>Quarter Barrel Kegs weigh about 19 lbs empty and about 90 lbs filled.<\/li><li>Half Barrel Kegs weigh about 30 lbs empty and about 160 lbs filled.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7333874876904419\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7333874876904419\" data-ad-slot=\"5168851069\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Do Beer Cans Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Standard 12 oz aluminum beer cans weigh just under \u00bdoz&nbsp; empty on average. Filled 12 oz aluminum beer cans weigh about 12\u00bd oz on average. The weight of the beer in a 12-oz can, not including the weight of the bottle, is 12 oz on average, but varies very slightly based on the density of the beer. Generally, beer has a close enough density to water to use standard water fl-oz to oz conversions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Do Glass Beer Bottles Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Standard 12oz bottles usually weigh between 6-7 oz empty, depending on the brand and manufacturer. Filled 12 oz glass beer bottles weigh about 18-19 oz on average. The weight of the beer in a 12-oz bottle, not including the weight of the bottle, is approximately 12 oz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>16-oz glass beer bottles, which are a bit less common, usually weigh about 9-10 oz empty. Filled 16 oz glass beer bottles weigh about 25-26 oz on average. The weight of the beer in a 16-oz bottle, not including the weight of the bottle, is approximately 16 oz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bomber bottles, which are 22-oz beer bottles, weigh about 10-13 oz empty on average, depending on the brand and manufacturer. Filled bomber bottles weigh about 32-35 oz on average. The weight of the beer in a 22-oz bomber bottle, not including the weight of the bottle, is approximately 22 oz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7333874876904419\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7333874876904419\" data-ad-slot=\"5168851069\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does a 6-Pack of Beer Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>6-packs of beer are commonly available in both cans and bottles. The weight of a 6-pack of beer is different based on whether the beer is packaged in cans or bottles. A 6-pack of bottled 12-oz beers weighs about 7 &#8211; 8lbs on average. A 6-pack of canned 12-oz beers weighs about 4 &#8211; 5 lbs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does a 12-Pack of Beer Weigh?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like a case, the weight of a 12-pack of beer is different based on whether the beer is packaged in cans or bottles. A 12-pack of bottled 12-oz beers weighs about 17 &#8211; 18&nbsp; lbs.

Because bottles weigh substantially more than cans, 24-packs of bottles weigh more than 24-packs of cans. A case of 24 bottled 12-oz beers weighs about 35 &#8211; 36 lbs on average.
