I think that it might have been a typo - it should have been 185 grams, or
maybe they meant milliliters.

Found this on the back of a Wine Spritzer, 6 fl oz and 85 g? A direct
conversion of fluid ounces would have been 177 ml or the same in grams if it
were water, so something is wrong with this picture.

Alcohol has a relative density of 0,8 so the true conversion from 177 ml to
grams would be around 141,6 grams.
