As we all know, the Holiday and New Year season is the time for parties, and some parties may have a keg. Have you ever wondered just how much alcohol is actually in a keg? We found this article on Cockeyed.com with some keg statistics (that were taken from a “scientific study” that the writer performed). Here’s some interesting stats:
- The standard keg size is 15 1/2 gallons.
- The beer used in the “study” contained 4.9% alcohol. This means that there is enough alcohol in a keg to put 41 men over the legal drinking limit!
- It’s estimated that the alcohol in a keg contains more than 25,000 calories!
Remember, if you’re going to drink this Holiday season, please do so responsibly and don’t abuse alcohol. Use a designated driver, and drink in moderation.
