Careful not to gain a beer belly? If so, it's best to avoid drinking drinks with too many calories, such as certain beers. We'll give you a few things to compare and give you some names of calorie-packed beers.

How can a beer contain a large number of calories?

Two factors determine the number of calories contained in a bottle (and then a glass). The larger the volume to be drunk, the higher the calorie count. Finally, the volume of calories correlates with the alcoholic strength. The higher the latter, the higher the quantity of sugars (ethanol) and therefore calories.

Here are a few examples of measurements. A so-called standard beer (between 4 and 5° alcohol) contains 37 calories, while a drink with an alcoholic strength of over 8° will exceed 60 calories. Another important point to remember is that one gram of alcohol is equivalent to 7 kilocalories. Finally, the least calorific beer is undoubtedly one containing 0% alcohol (or very little) !

You can also avoid calories with a Corona Cero !

Which beer has the most calories?

Let's answer the question asked by saying that the drink with the most alcohol will obviously have the most calories! Brewmeister Snake Venom, a Strong Ale from Scotland, takes that title! It contains 67.5° alcohol in 33 cl.

PerfectDraft also recommend you to try Armageddon, from the same Scottish brewery, Brewmeister. It drains at 65° alcohol. It's a brown ale.
