Those are "imperial pints", in the US a pint is 16 fluid onces so nearer to
464 (I think) grams...

Hmm.. 55 pints?
In the UK, the pint (as used, I assume for beer) is 568ml. So assuming 'pint' means the drink commonly called that
over here and assuming beer
has
a density similar to water [1] then 44 pints is very
close.
[1] No jokes about making love in a canoe, please.
More seriously, and ignoring things like '25 bags of sugar', what about
the
sort of weights used by those misguided people who do
not get their
exercise from lifting PDP's into racks?
