| Usually the same as in alcoholic beer.
|
654.2 | Maybe a little less than alcoholic beer | STAR::LEWIS | | Tue Mar 19 1991 13:21 | 5 |
| It depends on the brand. Most now have it listed on the label. My
favorites when I was pregnant were Kaliber and O'Douls. I think
Kaliber was 50ish/6 oz. (but I know that it was on the label) and
I know that O'Douls is 70 or 75 for a bottle.

654.3 | thanks.... | ICS::SARTORI | | Tue Mar 19 1991 14:37 | 6 |
| Thanks for the info.. I don't think that O'Douls listed the calories on
the label, but I could be wrong.
I'll give Kaliber a try!

654.4 | dry beers lowest in calories | MR4DEC::LATVALLA | | Fri May 24 1991 20:12 | 15 |
| One thing to note with regard to calories in "alcoholic" beer-
Amstel Light seems to have the fewest (at 97 per 12 ounces) of the
light beers.
Note that "dry" beers, though (based on an article in I read in either
Time or Newsweek a year or so ago, when these beers first started to
appear in stores) have less calories, typically, then light beers.
While these beers are advertised for their 'dry' (no after-taste)
flavor, this flavor is achieved by cutting down on the sugar content of
the beer, and brewing the beer for a longer period of time. The
result: low calorie beer with the same alcohol content as 'regular'
beer (remember that 'light' beer has a lower alcohol content than
'regular' beer). Interesting that they don't advertise this fact about
dry beers ....

| Kaliber is 49 calories per 12 oz. (not per 6 oz as in a previous
reply).

| Kaliber is in no way classifiable as beer. Even nonalcoholic beer.

654.7 | It's more of a beer than Old Milwaukee Light! | RANGER::PESENTI | Only messages can be dragged | Tue May 28 1991 13:44 | 4 |
| True...then again, it has more flavor than most American (non-boutique) brews.
Unfortunately, it costs more, too.
If only someone could perfect a non-alcoholic, 50 calorie per pint stout...sigh.
