Putting aside taste let's look at some beers and their alcohol content and calories. I went to this website
http://www.theraven.com/beer.html
and clicked on the table and pasted it into Excel and divided calories by alcohol content to arrive at calories/1%alcohol. I did a sort from lowest to highest and came out with the following. The first number is the %alcohol, the second is calories per 100 ml of beer and the third number is the calories per 1% of alcohol. So for example, the first one Utica Club Pilsener has 5.6 calories per 1% of alcohol content, and the last one, LA Anheuser Busch Premlum Pilsner Beer has over 11.3 calories per 1% of alcohol content. What's the purpose of this, so that you can choose a "Strong" beer, without the calories, taste no withstanding. Sorry, but I couldn't make it into more of a table.
