Low Carb Beer Counts

[MsWoods]

I did a quick little research on beers low in carbs for someone in another thread and just wanted to pass the info on to you all in a quick, easy little list.

Top 7 Low Carb Beers That You Can Drink On A Low Carbohydrate Diet

1. Michelob Ultra – 2.6 carbs (one of the best and most well known low carb brews)

2. Miller Lite – 3.2 carbs (this one often surprises people, as it’s one of the top beers already)

3. Rock Green Light – 2.6 carbs

4. Coors Light – 5 carbs (not as low, but still not terrible compared to others. Just watch portions)

5. Corona Light – 5 carbs (again, not exactly the lowest, but certainly not high. Portion control is key)

6. Aspen Edge – 2.6 carbs (not familiar with this beer at all, but if you are, great low carb option here)

7. Amstel Light – 5 carbs (not bad, but watch portions on this one as well)


Additionally
Budwiser Select has 99 calories and 3.1g carbs.

Budwiser Select 55 has 55 calories and 1.9 g carbs.

Drink responsibly

I think Select 55 is yucky!! lol

[MsWoods]

Haven't had it. I've had 1 beer since June, and it was a Michelob Ultra.

Thanks, MsWoods

Hubby switched from IPAs to Amstel Light when he began moderate LC, four years after I started VLC. It was a taste adjustment at first, but now he likes it.

Miller 64 has 64 caloies and 2.4 carbs.

I got used to it.

I prefer, in no particular order, Amstel Light, Corona Light, and Miller Lite. I've tried all the other ones and most taste like water to me, or have an odd "whang" to them. JMHO of course!

[pocahontas]

I Amstel Light & Coronoa Light. I refuse to drink the others

Moose p*ss

According to hubby, anyway. I don't like any beer, so that "whang" is beer-universal for me

I drink this with a few olives in it. not so bad then!

[lancer1977]

I had a Samuel Adams light, beware if memory serves me correctly they are like 9.5 g a pop. Michelob Ultra comes in the Amber now, a little fuller flavor.

[RobbyC]

Miller Lite will always be my beer but, you just cant beat MGD 64, with 64 calories and 2.4 carbs! Plus, Bud Select 55 tastes like water with foam in it... YUCK!

[CherylB]

I usually buy (always buy) Miller Lite. Michelob Ultra is nasty, and I haven't tried most of the others listed. Not very adventurous with my beer. Don't like darker brews, anyway. Is there anything better than an ice cold brew from a bottle when you're thirsty? The answer is: NO.

I was thinking, "Hmmmm, that avatar must be DARK water!"

[Lynda99]

Thank you for posting this!

*bookmarking the thread for summer....*

[jamiernd2]

i drink the closest thing i can get to water. so i like ultra or 55. (if i cant get wild turkey!)

if you had 5 bud selects a day, which is only 10 carbs, and that was the only carbs you had for the day, (sticking with meat, etc) do you think you could still lose weight or would you gain??

[wiz]

My husband works for Miller...so it is always Miller Lite in our house! MGD 64 is okay too. However, I will say that I am primarily a wine drinker.

[lancer1977]

American beer is like making love in a dingy....
It's !@#$^% close to water....
Thank you monty python...

[CherylB]

Sounds fine to me, at this point.

[MsWoods]

Bumping this up to help you all make good LC choices this holiday weekend!

[mamasooze]

Ultra Amber here with a Stella Artois on the side. The extent of my holiday drinking.

[JustCallMeAmy]

here in Canada we have a low carb beer my dh likes & buys when he's in a beer mood that's only 2.5 carbs per bottle. it's apparently quite good and we've had non-low carbing guests & family drink it and enjoy it.

it's called President's Choice Low Carb Beer for any of my fellow canucks

[CalRon]

I've been looking for the total carbs in Negra Modelo with no success. The
info on the Modelo nutrition page shows none, but this is obviously wrong.

I even purchased "The Drink Beer, Get Thin Diet" book because they promised
the carb counts of all beers. It wasn't in there and the book was worthless.
It is a dark Mexican beer fairly popular in the southwest.

Anyone have an answer? I est about 15 carbs per based on comparisons with other dark beers.

No matter the carb count, I'm going to continue having my two beers with my Mexican food twice a month.

[CalRon]

Thank you, Livinlarge.

[randomusername]

Does anyone know of any *good* microbrews that are LC? I also enjoy Belgian beers. I'm sure a tripel ale is NOT LC lol.

[fawn]

I prefer the Amstel Light to all other beers.

[JunkInMyTrunk]

Was a Miller Lite girl for years, but switched to Michelob Ultra a while back. Love them both. Had a really cold Mich Ultra last weekend and it tasted so good.

[MsWoods]

Just wanted to bump this back up as summer and hot weather is upon us.
