How much does a 22 gallon beer barrel weigh?

A new 59 gallon oak barrel weighs about 120 lbs when empty. 600 lbs when full of wine. Used barrels weigh more due to the wine/spirit that has soaked into the grain. The weight can vary due to shape, construction and forest source. Barrels should always be filled on specially made racks. Don't attempt to lift a full barrel(s) without a forklift, a loaded 2-barrel rack can weigh 1250 lbs.
