Steak marinade?

I'm getting ready to cook a steak. Shopped around, got myself a nice, lean cut of meat. But I'm not sure how I should enter it in my diary. You see, I marinated the steak in Berkshire Brewing Company's Coffeehouse Porter. BBC has no nutritional info on their beers and I wouldn't know how much to calculate I consumed anyway.
Advice?

    If it were me.....when I took the steak out of the marinade, I would try to figure out how much I had left (like a cup, 2 cups, etc). Subtract that from the amount you started with, and then add the calories for the amount used (example: 2 cups to start, 1.5 cups after, so calories for 1/2 cup).
    And I would just try to find a similar beer to base your estimate off of. I'm no beer expert, but another dark brew would probably substitute just fine.
