Drinkin beer!

[TylerDurden]

Ya know beer has always been a mystery to me. Its only has like 5grams of carbs or whatever and i always thought they were like 20calories, do the math right? Well someone tell me how their like 100+calories? I mean like when im out with my friends and i drink 10beers, i cant believe its a 1000calories! someone was talking about maltose? wtf is maltose!

Beer manufactures like to fool you into thinking their beer is low calorie by not counting the calories in alcohol as carbs.

Protein and carbohydrates: 4kcal/g
Fat: 9kcal/g
Alcohol: 7kcal/g

As you can see, subtracting the few carbs by drinking a "low carb" or even light beer isn't saying much when you factor in the fact that alcohol is so calorically dense.
