With Summer just bending around the corner (on Van island anyway, sorry for everyone else still dealing with snow ;( ) my fiance and I decided to bbq. I did pretty good with the food (portion controlled it) however I grabbed a beer and typed it in and was DEVASTATED with the amount of calories (I always knew beer and alcoholic had high calorie content, just such a surprise to see the actual number.)
Then my boyfriend mentioned the low cal beer and all I could remember was how gross tasting it was, so does anyone have any suggestions for a tasty low cal beverage? Because there it's seriously nothing better than to kick back with a beer in the sun ;(

I'm a bit of a beer snob. When I drink a beer, I want it to taste really, really, good. As such, very rarely touch light beers. That being said, the one light beer I kind of like is Sam Adams Light. 119 calories. Not my first choice for beer, but it tastes pretty good.0

Molson 67 Sublime beer is my favorite. 67 calories a bottle and a nice crisp citrus taste.0

corona light would be my choice.
besides...it comes with a lime. gettin fruit in while drinking!0 -
NO!!!!!
Drink good beer, and work it into your allowance.
Of course, I'm a beer snob too :drinker:0 -
Coors Light...haha just kidding0

Drink normal beer. Just don't have mayo and cheese with your burger. Or wrap the burger in lettuce rather than a nasty bun.0

Amstel..was introduced to it in the 70s visiting my friend Bill in Belgium before lite beer was invented..0

NO!!
Just make good craft beer work into your macros. Run around if you have to even, or just drink a yummy beer and deal with it.0 -
I don't think most low calorie beers taste much worse than light beers in general. They all taste like watery beer. I sometimes prefer them if it's very hot because fuller bodied beers are just too heavy in the heat for my taste. This is the same reason I prefer a light crisp white or sangria over most red wines when it's hot.
It might be easier to give specific suggestions knowing what beers you think taste good.0 -

You can catch a buzz off low calorie beer, it just takes longer. This is exactly why I drink Bud Select 55 when throw darts. If I drink the better stuff I get too drunk and by the end of the match I'm hitting the wall (or rather my darts are).0 -

I usually just drink Guinness or Boddington's Pub Ale. That said I will have a MGD 64, miller lite, michelobe ultra or something if I just kinda want the taste but don't have the calories0

Guinness is pretty low cal, true story. I didn't believe it when I first heard it. Plus it has the added bonus for me that it fills me up too much to drink more than about 2 max.0
