Calories In beer

criiisdaw · August 2016

Hi Can anyone tell me how accurate the information in the data Base is ?

I put in a bottle of Theakston old peculiar and it says 168 for 500ml, yet a pint comes up as 280 calories (about 68 ml more) .

Old Peculiar
Theakston, 1 pint, 280 calories
Beer
Old Peculiar, 1 ml bottle, 168 calories

I always thought ales were quite high in calories and would imagine something nearer the 280 is correct.

Likewise i had a bottle of boltmaker yesterday and found this:

Boltmaker Bitter
Timothy Taylor, 568 ml, 120 calories
Boltmaker
Timothy Taylor's, 500 ml, 142 calories

Clearly something is wrong.

Does anyone know where to find accurate/correct information ?

The data base is full of inaccurate records. Choose the one that matches the packaging info or the suppliers info from their websites.

Oh, and ratebeer's calories are for 12 oz. Don't get fooled thinking it's a pint.
