Last night I was watching the news and guess what’s coming out soon… LOW CARB BEER. Yep the good people at Micholob are bringing us “Micholobe Ultra”. with i think it was 2.5 grams of carbs. WHOOOOO HOOOOOO. As great as that sounds though it has 96 calories per 12 ounce bottle. Which sounds like the glycerine thing with bars. But who cares call me an ULTRA MAN from now on
I think the calories come from alcohol. If I’m not mistaken, 1g of alcohol has 7cal.
sounds cool, i’ll have to try it when it becomes available
I think the Micholob Ultra just has less alcohol, which is how they kept the carbs lower. I wonder how it will taste, probably like beer flavored water. By the way I think a Coors Light only has about 5g of carbs.
Cool! Now I can start drinking heavyily!
I think Bud Light is only around 6 carbs and around 100 calories a bottle. Still, it’s the alcohol itself that gets you, not just the carbs and calories.
I think you guys have had enough beer. Its pretty bad when you can’t even spell the name of your beer right…
Carbs was never really the problem with light beer (miller light is only 3g per bottle). The calories come from alcohol, as was mentioned above, it has 7 cals per gram. This is really no big deal, so they shaved .5g of carbs off miller light, 2.5g carbs off amstel light, and I beleive 3.5g off of Bud Light. Like most things this is nothing new it is just a gimick.
Listen, I put this up there on the list of “non-fat” items: I’ll avoid it like the plague. If I eat a cookie - it’s a COOKIE - no “non-fat” ickiness. If I’m going to drink a BEER - it’s gonna be a full-bodied, damn swell tasting beer. 'Nuff said.
I’m with Patricia. Coors Light et.al. is like fornicating in a canoe - fucking near water…
You all are forgetting the CRUCIAL point that alcholol puts your Testosterone levels to the FLOOR!!! Would you take a reverse Tribex? seems to me that’s what it does…
Youre all forgeting an even more CRUCIAL point. Beer gets you drunk. Who cares what it tastes like. Im just playing, Im imature.
Why do u guys get so friggin obsessed about getting drunk?I don’t get this american society.
WHO THE HELL WANTS TO DRINK LOW CARB BEER? SOUNDS SICKENING.
that wouldnt be beer anyway,it would be water.
Well, it’s cuz we have the dumb law that says you can’t drink until you’re 21. My family’s not from US (we’re immigrants), and my parents are cool w/ me and my bro drinking w/ them before we turned 21. Every kid who knew us was so envious that we had such cool parents.
Drink the beer, don’t sweat the small stuff, just don’t do it as a daily routine. Too much headache stuff in this post if you ask me. “Life is a small and short wonder why worry about even shorter and less wonderful things.”
Hardly an improvement over Miller Lite. Most American beers, with the exception of microbrews, taste like horse piss, and the lite one’s just taste like watered down horse piss. I you’re going to drink a beer, at least drink a good microbrew or an import. Yeah, alcohol does affect T levels and gH levels, but not to the extent that some of the overzealous responders to this message have stated. Do you really think that pro body builders don’t drink? Yeah, right. Remember, moderation in all things.
