1. Approximately 16 fluid ounces.
I'm doing a few 16-ounce curls myself this evening...

2. Let's see...
A gallon is about 8 pounds.

2 pints to a quart, 8 pints to a gallon.

Pint weighs about a pound then, excluding the weight of the glass.

3. If this math weren't about beer, I would have tuned out hours ago.
However, since it IS about beer... :beer:

11. A gallon of milk or other heavy liquid weighs more than one of water
or beer, for that matter.

10. First, you have to weigh the glass in which you're about to pour the beer
Weigh the glass, adjust the scale so it reads 0, and then pour the pint of beer into the glass. Then you'll get the net weight. Post your results; I don't know the exact weight off the top of my head.
