For a light golden lager that delivers crisp refreshment without the guilt, SELECT 55 - the lightest beer in the world!

What's the best way to burn 55 calories?

-33min of web surfing
-49min of reality TV
-20min of power shopping


UGH

I tried one of those 64 calorie Beck's Lights a few weeks ago. Coulda sworn I was drinking water. Felt rather ripped off. And now a beer even lighter? Forget about it.

So is some brewery eventually going to come up with a nasty one-calorie beer, kind of like a diet soda? I can't believe that Bud has gotten it down to 55 calories; even 100-calorie light beer tastes awful.

the gayest thing of all is that bud 55, mgd 64, and becks' 64 all only have 2.2% alcohol, about half of what normal light beer at around 100 calories, so to get the same desired affect, you'll still end up consuming the same amount of calories or more.

No one drinks this **** to get drunk, they'd sooner go down with water poisoning then a buzz.
