    My understanding is that you're pretty safe as long as you stay in a calorie deficit.

    My issue is craft beer with unknown number of calories

    I wouldn't say you're undoing it, but I wouldn't have it be a daily thing. All of those sugars, glucose, etc add up for sure.

    A beer a day will never hurt. In fact if anything 1 a day may benefit you.

    I work a beer or two into the food plan, some days I'd rather have a beer than chocolate...
