Gallons to Pints Converter — Draft Beer Keg Pour Counts & Taproom Festivals

Converting gallons (gal) to pints (pt) is essential for brewery taproom managers, festival bartenders, and party planners estimating how many 16-ounce draft pints can be poured from commercial beer kegs. A standard American half-barrel beer keg holds 15.5 gallons (pouring 124 full 16-ounce pints), while a 5-gallon sixtel keg yields 40 pints. Multiplying gallons by 8 gives the exact total pint pour count.
