No. There are several things wrong with this question-first you have to assume what a beer is-a pint of beer? But not everyone has pints.

So you've got is a shot equal to a pint? But you don't say in units, in liquid, in enjoyment or what.

In units a pint is 2 units. A shot usually has 5-8 units.

A shot can vary between 20ml (in the Czech Republic) and 100ml (a double, various foreign places). The US measure is 25-35ml for a single, 50ml for a double. The UK measure is 30ml for a small, 44ml for a single, 74ml for a double. A pint is 5.6ml.

Some people may enjoy a shot as much as a beer, but most would find a shot easier to drink, and get more drunk from a shot.

In predictive slang beer could equal a shot-a 'pint' in predictive slang is a shot.

It depends on what type of beer or wine it is and who brewed it. There's no exact measure but if you want a generalized average, beer generally is around 5% ABV (which in this case a can of beer will contain more than a shot [in the US a shot is about 1.5 fluid ounces]).
