    Coors Light. It's 105 for 12oz.

    BUT there are a lot of good normal beers that aren't much more, like Sunshine Wheat, one of my top beer choices. I think it's about 150 a bottle.

    I tried MGD 64 and it reminded me of beer flavored water... I thought Bud Select 55 would be worse, but now I wanna try it! lol

    I prefer wine... and if I drink beer I'm usually happier with a heavier beer... but I did recently try Bud Light Lime, 116 calories for 12 oz. So refreshing because the lime is so heavy.

    I liked that, others will probably hate that... but it is tasty.

    I'm a beer drinker and while I've been watching my calories I've been drinking Bud Select 55. For a light beer, it's really pretty good. I've tried most of them and didn't really like most of the others. If I can't get Bud Select 55, I'll add a lime wedge to a different light beer. Keep in mind that none of the really light beers have much alcohol, so if you're looking to get drunk, look elsewhere. :drinker:

    Okay, first let me say I know it's not a beer, but I LOVE Mike's Light Hard Cranberry Lemonade. It's 119 cal for 1 bottle. And for a non-beer alcohol in a bottle it's awesome for the calorie factor. And it tastes great. I'm so in love with it right now! :drinker:

    Haha! Nope, if I want to get drunk I will go straight to the hard stuff. I just want a good tasting beer to sip with summer barbecue...but still have calories left to eat the barbecue...
  • THE BEST But not always easy to find .The Nice Crisp clean flavor of Labatts Blue Light.
    They always try to pass of Bud light or Coors light

    Just drink the good stuff and limit yourself to 2.

    Ditto on the Mike's!!!

    I like Bud Select 55, but to really enjoy it, I want to add tomato juice - and right now I can't afford all the sodium that is in the tomato juice :( booooo

    The Bud Light Lime is pretty decent stuff, but I also love a good Guinness sometimes. The Draught is only 126 calories!

    Yeah it's still beer. It's seasonal usually if you live up North we have a bunch of different flavors when I'm a school in Florida. Mich Ultra makes Cactus Lime, Pomegranate Raspberry and Dragon Fruit Peach. They're so refreshing. It's like bud light lime but better.

    I don't drink beer but if I can find a way to get just one instead of having to buy an entire 6 pack, I might have to try this.

    Guinness - 155 calories for 14.9 oz.

    I know it's not "light" but it's the lightest "beer" I like.

    Summer Shandy. 130 delicious calories. :drinker:

    Honestly, though, if I'm going out for a drink, I'm much more apt to drink malibu and diet coke.

    I don't mind Molson Canadian 67. Tastes the same as regular Canadian, but light beer is like that. The new Sublime flavour is alright, but not beer-y enough for me.

    Honestly, I've gone back to regular beer. A bottle of Alexander Keith's (my favourite) is only 145 calories, and I can make room for that once in a while.

    Yuengling Light Lager. More real beer flavor and around 100 cals. Available only on the East Coast. The oldest brewery in the USA.

    For low calorie beers I like Miller Chill (100 calories) and Mich Ultra.

    I'd definitely rather have a Guinness though...

    Bud Light Lime ..... I know they said light beer doesn't have much alcohol in it, but for me it has plenty. I get tipsy at the drop of a hat it seems. So, I rarely drink ; )
