How much does a 12oz. bottle of beer weigh?

How tall is a 36" yardstick?

Are you trying to figure out the weight of the glass bottle because 12 oz is a measurement of weight?

16 oz = 1 lb = .45 kilos

 

1lb for all of the above.

 

What's heavier? A pound of feathers or a pound of gold?

 

1 liter = ~2.2 lbs = 1 kilo (water)

 

Rough ballpark... 1 pound for 12oz bottle, 2 pounds for a bomber, 3 pounds for a 750.

 

I'll bring a beer to work this weekend when no one is around and weight it on our mail machine.

 

It's an old trading joke where guys put 1lb on any box they send no matter the weight.

 

91.44 centimeters, duh. Amateurs....

 

If he is shipping motor oil in 12 oz bottles, you would be correct. I just verified on motoroiladvocate.com

Since he specified beer and beer is +90% water, I think my answer was sufficient.

 

A pints a pound the world around.

That's all I got.

 

People don't seem to understand the difference between fluid ounce and ounce.

 

Correct. My answer was only partially correct. A fl. oz. (volume) is different than an oz. (weight) and different than a measure of mass.

 

I bench press my box then some different size weights and write down whatever feels close.

 

Please, no. We already have enough dumb people running around this country, not to mention the Imperial system is garbage.

 

Ewwwwwww...

 

Dude, total vagina move!

 

It's cool bro, I got saran wrap.

 

OP, you're getting a decent level of flak because unless you're scheduling a UPS/FED EX pickup or dropping the box off directly to the driver via your workplace or some other system, the drop off facilities are just going to weigh your box anyways, and disregard the weight you input when making your shipping label.

 

Hey, it helped me out. I had the same question and googled it and it lead me here on the first link. So Cheers to you sir!!

 

Just weighed some 12oz bottles. With very little variation, my scale says 564g or 1.25 lbs.

Btw, 22oz was 1042g, about 2.3lbs; 750ml was 1573g or just around 3.5lbs.

 

Thank you, this came in helpful stocking the new shelves in the cellar. 150# rating per shelf, should be good with 48 bombers + a case of 12 oz or 36 750 ml + misc bottles.

 

Does anyone include the weight of the glass and bottle cap?

 

Does UPS or FedEx usually catch and change the weight? I always see packages coming in weighing waaay less than I thought they should, but always fear to do it myself as to not bring extra attention to my box.

 

Glad to help.

I weighed full, sealed bottles. the 750s I weighed were cork and cage.

 

I was just messin' everyone was saying 12/1/226 oz is a weight measurement....

 

Providence -- I use these measurements as a guide. Hope it helps!
