HOW MUCH DOES A SIXTEEN GALLON KEG WEIGH?

A full sixteen-gallon keg typically weighs around 160 to 170 pounds, depending on the specific type of beer and the keg's construction. The weight comes from both the liquid beer and the keg itself, which is usually made of stainless steel. When empty, a sixteen-gallon keg weighs approximately 30 to 40 pounds.
