Best Answer

Kegs come in many different sizes,

By Far The Most common we deliver to bars is the 11 gallon keg or the 50 litre keg as it is sometimes known, after initial wastage from hooking up this is roughly 90 pints,

There is also 22 Gallon Kegs which are rarer due to there size making them harder to accommodate in cellars.

I hope this has been helpful,

Good Luck

How many cups of beer in a quarter keg?

A keg is technically any type of steel container used to serve beer from using either pressurized air for carbon dioxide. What most people think of a keg is actually a 1/2 barrel. A barrel is equal to 31 gallons (US). What most people call a keg is actually a 1/2 barrel, so 15.5 gallons. Oddly enough, what most people call a 1/4 keg is actually a 1/4 barrel, not a 1/4 of what people think of when they think of a keg (which is a 1/2 barrel). So a 1/4 keg (aka 1/4 barrel) is 7.75 gallons. There's 128oz of beer in a gallon. Assuming you want a cup of beer to be 12oz, which is what is in a bottle or can of beer, there will be 82.67 cups of beer in a 1/4 keg (aka 1/4 barrel).


How many 30 packs of beer fill a keg?

12 thirty packs! Since keg sizes are not standardized, the keg cannot be used as a standard unite of measure for liquid volumes. This size standard varies from country to country and brewery to brewery with many countries using the metric system rather than U.S. gallons. In the US, however, a "full keg" or "half barrel" contains 15.5 and therefore depending on the quality of the fill anywhere from 150-165 12 oz. beers. Doing the math, that means that 5 to 5.5 "30 packs of beer fill a keg."
