Surely that would depend on the size of the barrel???????

Quart = 2 Pints
Gallon = 4 Quarts
Firkin = 9 Gallons
Kilderkin = 2 Firkins
Barrel = 2 Kilderkins
Therefore offficially 1 Barrel holds 1 x 2 x 4 x 9 x 2 x 2 = 144 Pints, however as my friend runs a bar I know that you get 88 pints in a barrel of Guinness

Oil barrel: 42 U.S. gallons (158.9873 litres[1]), or approximately 35 Imperial (UK) gallons (34.97231575 UK gallons exactly).
This is used for crude oil or other petroleum products. The measurement originated in the early Pennsylvania oil fields. Both the 42-gallon barrels (based on the old English wine measure, the tierce) and the 40-gallon (151.4 liters) whiskey barrels were used. The 40-gallon barrel was the most common size early, but companies often underfilled them with less. However, the Standard Oil Company shipped its oil in barrels that always contained exactly 42 gallons. Customers began to refuse to accept anything less and by 1866 the oil barrel was standardized at 42 gallons. Since Standard Oil painted its barrels blue, it was abbreviated "bbl" for "blue barrel". The Standard Oil monopoly was broken up into 34 different companies in 1911 and oil has not been shipped in barrels for a very long time[2], but today the "blue barrel" is still the standard unit for measurement and pricing of oil.
UK beer barrel: 36 UK gallons (163.7 litres).
US beer barrel: 31 U.S. gallons (117.3 litres), the result of tax law definitions.
US non-beer liquid barrel: 31.5 U.S. gallons (119.2 litres), or half a hogshead.
US dry barrel: 105 dry quarts (115.6 litres).

Depends on the size of the Barrel.
Beer is put up in about 4 different sizes.
Beer weights about 8 pounds per gallon.
A pint ='s 1 pound
4 quarts to a gallon
8 pints per gallon.
Take you pick..
Don't try to drink the whold thing by yourself.

Since this question is under the dog category I assume you're speaking of the little barrels that the Saint Bernards carry.... lol!
In that case I'd say one!
