I'm trying to monitor both my calories and my carbs....
The image below shows the MyFitnessPal numbers for several beers pulled at random.
The first colm is calories and the 2nd colm is carbs.

I'm having trouble believing the "spread" on the carb numbers.
Brahva is a local brand where I am living right now (Guatemala) it's a inexpensive pilsner
The others I'm sure you will recognize, but how the h*ll can Brahva have zero carbs?
Corona only 3 g... blah blah blah.. ok I'll shut-up... can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks,
Jim

    I did a bit more research, and I think I have the answer:

    As an inexpensive pilsner Brahva may have low carbs (somewhere between 3 and 7 grams I expect),
    but it's unlikely it has ZERO.

    Here's a nice chart/picture I found: https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/alcohol#beer

    Cheap, *kitten* lagers use adjuncts rather than two-row malt / barley. Budweiser uses rice syrup solids, and I wouldn't be surprised if every domestic lager / pilsner does the same. I've often wondered how Miller Lite goes so low on carbs, yet has alcohol.
