Real Women Drink Beer: 64 Calories of Yuck


I try a lot of different types of beer but I try not to give bad reviews. I will just move on to something I like better - keep the karma clear right? I really need to make an exception here though.

My husband and I usually keep a 12 pack of cheap beer in the fridge for sipping on at the end of a hot day. I figured when I was in the store I would pick up some MGD, a good standby beer that quenches just fine. I picked up by accident their new MGD 64 - their new low cal beer with the great commercials. Honestly , I'm not that concerned with my caloric intake from beer. Most of the average American lagers are a little above 100 calories a bottle (Bud Light is 110 calories), less than a soda and better for you :) The good rich beers that I love I don't drink every day so it's like having an occasional desert after dinner, a treat.

I am however concerned with taste.

This sad excuse for a beer wasn't worth even the 64 calories it added to my waist. I was actually cursing the wasted calories every time I took a sip. It tastes like seltzer water that someone soaked some hops in.

If you're watching your weight and figure this is a great "diet" beer just stop the madness. Eat a few less pretzels and drink a beer that tastes good and leave MGD64 at the store.
