Guinness - 125 calories for a 12-ounce glass
Although, I will drink Busch Light or MGD 64 after working the yard in the summer.
I was just about to say Guinness! Can't go wrong. If I am working in the yard int he summer though I do prefer an IPA. Good hoppy bite is so refreshing Ill take the extra calories0 -
NO and i want to read this later

*Not at all a beer snob, I actually like cheap beer. If I'm drinking coors light or some such though, I won't be having just one or two.0 -

Wrong. I just corrected your incorrect response to another's post.
I know. The point is you compared 6 beers to 2 beers.
Wrong. You don't need to compare the same amounts. In fact, it is quite basic to compare to different products of two varying sizes, particularly when one is comparably dilute. Being that it's a foodstuff, it's rather simple as well to compare on other factors like taste, quality, impact of adjuncts, etc.Calorie for calorie you need to compare the same amounts. If you start fudging the math, you can make anything make sense. Fact is that better beer has more calories, so determine what is more important - taste or calories? Don't make a comparison with two different amounts and say they are basically the same.
Good luck working on that.And yes, I can eat 6 hamburgers. That is why I am on this friggin site.0 -
for previous post the craft beers tend to have higher percentage of abv so it doesn't take as many to get a buzz or whatever it is you are drinking for so comparing 2 craft beers to 6 light beers is reasonable.0

Once you go from American adjunct lagers over to full flavored beer it's about impossible to go back. The only solution is to account for it, adjust calories/workouts around it, and drink the good beer. Aventinus (tap 9) by Schneider Weisse is the perfect beer IMHO, or go with a high alcohol Belgian strong dark ale like Chimay Blue. Yum!0

Yes and No
No. If you're going to drink beer go for the higher percent beer. This way you're drinking maybe 2-3 200-300 calorie (8+% ABV) beers vs. 6 coors light or amstel light or whatever crap they're putting out there as beer. That stuff might be low calorie but you have to drink a lot of it to get your buzz going which negates the whole thing.
Basically I can drink 2 Eye of the Hawk 8% beers and be pretty decently buzzed (I'm a lightweight) but it would take maybe 5 or 6 Amstel lights to do the same trick.
Yes. My husband brewed me a pretty kick *kitten* low-calorie home brew. It came out to 125 calories, 5.5% ABV and tasted AMAZING. He used Agave instead of Honey.0 -
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.
Upgrade to a Sam Pale ale for only 30 more calories. Sam Light's not worth it.
But a good Light option is Guiness Draught Bottle .. only 9 more calories than the Sam Light.
Guiness! :drinker:0 -
Seems to be an unpopular opinion..... I really Like Coors Light ^_^0

As with almost everything else about a healthier lifestyle. If you want it low cal, and to taste good, MAKE IT YOURSELF!

A lot of the breweries in the Midwest are coming out with tasty sessionable IPAs that are under 5% ABV. Founders All-Day IPA (4.7%), Central Waters Hop Rise(4.5%), Lagunitas Daytime (4.65%) and Hinterland White Cap (3.9%) all hit the market recently. I'm not 100% sure on the calories for those but probably in the 130-150 range would be my guess. That's low calorie in my book!0

I agree with a few others on here - Molson 67 Sublime beer. It's actually pretty good for a beer with only 67 calories.0
