    Typically craft beers fall into the higher calorie range because of the brewing methods and ingredients to achieve those aromas, flavors, and, pallet feel. This makes me terribly sad, since I love crafts brews. Since all the calories in beer come from the malts it would make sense that beers emphasizing hops would make good low calorie options if you're not a fan of light (watery) beers. But at the same time, you need to make sure that the APV is relatively low. So it is possible to get a good craft beer under 160 calories.

    Some of my favorites are:

    Founder's All Day IPA (147 cal per bottle)
    Stone Levitation Ale (132 cal per bottle)
    Brasserie de la Senne (135 cal per bottle)
    Bitter American (140 cal per bottle)

    Guinness is actually a pretty low cal beer. Only 125 I believe. It's the type of malt that causes the dark color, not the amount. It's great if you're not in the mood to compromise on flavor and opt for conventional light beers.

    All beer tastes like piss. I'll stick to liquor on the rare occasion that I drink.

    Then you're drinking the wrong piss.

    light beer is stupid in my opinion. i end up drinking 4-5 because i never get a buzz. so basically i can drink 500 calories of light beer and feel nothing. or i can drink 2 really good heavy beers, get a decent buzz, and i'm only down 300 calories. that's my 2 cents.
