How many pints is there in a keg of beer?!


Question: Hi "D", I only used to sell them from 11 gallon ones or 51/2 if it was quiet, but I suppose you mean the 36 gallon ones, as used in pubs.

Barrel (beer)
Unit of volume, equal to 36 gallons, or 4 firkins. Still in use.

36 gallons = 288 pints as 1 gallon = 8 pints

A full US keg is 15.5 gallons.
1 gallon = 8 pints
A full US keg is 124 pints.

A keg is 36 Gallons.

UK 288pts

Most UK breweries do three different sizes, they are usually called Cask, Keg and Barrel. Cannot remember the exact capacity of each, its been 12 years since I last ordered one... but the brewery you get one from should be able to explain... Polypin is probably in there somewhere too - I'd confirm with the vendor before you commit to anything.

A keg is about 36 gallons=288 pints 1 gallon=8 pints.

140 pints my dear friend.
