You mean the Imperial system?
On the earth’s surface, one slug = 32 pounds. Just like one kilogram = 9.81 newtons. (Just to compare mass with weight on our planet’s surface, because both one slug and one kilogram weigh nothing in space.)

one slug = 32 pounds.
So, having a few slugs of Bushmills might be overdoing it?
