Is there a nice pre-bottled/canned low-fat/calorie/or carb alchoholic drink with a % similar to beer?!
Answers: I know how to mix some good low-fat ones, but I always get the ratios of vodka to cherry club-soda and lime wrong and end up drinking too much. I would like something similar to beer percentage wise, but that is pre-mixed and won't give you a pot belly. The carbs in beer are AWFUL. thanks!
A pint of craft beer has fewer calories than an equal serving of orange juice, soda, milk, and many other drinks...
Regardless, if you have to have something that isn't a beer, check out Sparks. It's an alcoholic energy drink. They make a Sparks Light (blue and silver can). They taste like orange creamsicles and are 6.0% alcohol by volume.
Check out the link for the nutritional info of Sparks Light...

I really encourage you to drink beer, instead, though. The health benefits of beer BY FAR outweigh any detriments such as the small amount of carbs. Drinking one quality beer means you have to walk an extra dozen or so steps in order to burn the calories, etc.
Good luck! (Life is to short do drink cheap beer, or to sacrifice quality for diets, etc.)
Go running? I will happily drink 14 units of alcohol in a night and I run 4 times a week and cycle and swim once. I struggle to put any weight on, and at 6'2" weigh 10st and run for my local athletics club.
