I drank it & it was YUMMY.

Since I didn't know how many calories/carbs it had I just assumed it was a
buttload and called it a dessert instead of a beverage

I've had it in the fridge for about 6 months waiting for the moment when I
wanted a beer.

After 2.5 years without a beer, I sure as heck wasn't going to drink anything
boring and ordinaryRobyn

I think you've more than earned that beer, dear! Besides, those extra carbs
will help you push just a bit harder in your next workout.

Yum, that is a good winter or fall beer. I don't know that carb count, but
it may not be as high as you think. Generally beers carbs come from how
much alcohol it has. For example Guinness is low alcohol so the carbs are
pretty low. Amazingly not much higher than a so called low carb beer. All
lite beers are low carb and always have been. Are they low carb enough to
drink on a LC diet? That depends on you I guess. I retain quite a bit of
water when I drink. I have been having trouble controlling my drinking
lately. Oh well.

Totally wrong. There are NO carbs in alcohol. Are there carbs in vodka,
whiskey, etc? Of course not.

As another example of how wrong this statement above is...NA (non-alcohol)
beers are much higher in carbs that a standard American pilsner (Bud, MGD,
Coors, etc.) By your reasoning, since they have no (almost no) alcohol in
them, it would stand to reason that these beers would also be lower in
carbohydrates. Ain't so. As a matter of fact, they are typically much higher
in carbs.

BTW, I described this no alcohol/high carb phenomonon in my first two books
on the subject and believe I also mentioned this on my recent appearance on
'The View.'
