Beer is heavier per gallonEven though some of the carbohydrates and sugars have been fermented into alcohol, which is less dense than water, there are still many solids suspended in some beer, particularly the heavy, dark ones. When you measure the specific gravity of finished beer, it usually has a higher SG than water, which has an SG of 1.000. This means that beer is denser and, hence, weighs more per gallon than water.

When I make my Irish Red, I add a one-quart bottle of liquid malt extract to the brew pot. That one-quart bottle weighs over six pounds!

Answer8 lbs per gallon. Give or take a few tenths.

(Water is 8.0 and Milk is 8.2 so diesel fuel has to be somewhere close)

The water vapor weighs less. The ice will be heavier because the state of matter it is. Just because they are both gallons doesn't mean they weigh the same. That is volume and NOT weight.

Weight of one gallon of alcohol?

Almost the same as pure water The specific gravity of fermented wine is very close to that of water, because although the weight is increased by dissolved solids, it is reduced by the alcohol content. Sweet wines tend to have a higher SG, so they weigh a bit more per gallon than water, which weighs 8.34 pounds per US gallon. During the winemaking process, it can weigh as much as 9 pounds or more.
