[Choinski, Burton]

Well, nothing says that weights can't be looked at and tweaked for the next
version.

It works out fairly close for Kegs 1-3 in the old list, but a Skin is not
listed much in the way of weight (no pun intended). 
As for the Beer and Ale, the 5%-8% alcohol is certainly not going to effect
the overall weight very much. 
 
In the book 1 v.2 list the weight for a quart varies between 1 lb for cheap
wine,1.5 lbs for water (listed as 3 lbs for 2 quarts), and 3lbs for beer and
ale. All for a single quart, container extra (price and weight).

I always figured the weight of the container was added to the total.

Does anyone know why water and other fluids (beer, ale wine) are listed 
as having a weight of 1.5 lbs in PnP per quart. If I remember correctly 
a gallon (American measure) of water normally weighs 8.3 lbs or so. 
Thus a quart of water would be just over 2 lbs.   I know this doesn't 
seem like a lot but the weight difference of a Skin IV for example 
would be over 7.5 pounds of weight (22.5 lbs vs 35 lbs.) 
 
I figured I'd ask, it's always made me wonder.
