Low Calorie Beer
Explanation:
- Light beer is a beer, usually a pale lager, that is reduced in alcohol content or in calories compared to regular beers.
- The first use of the term in marketing was in the 1940s when the Coors Brewing Company sold Coors Light, for a short period before World War II, relaunching it more successfully in 1978[1] as a 4.2% abv pale lager.
- In 1967, the Rheingold Brewery marketed a 4.2% pale lager, Gablinger's Diet Beer, developed by American biochemist Joseph Owades, as a beer for people dieting. It was not successful, and the recipe was given to a Chicago brewery, Meister Brau, who sold it as Meister Brau Lite. That brewery was acquired by the Miller Brewing Company in 1972, who relaunched the beer as Miller Lite.[2]
- Light beers may be chosen by beer drinkers who wish to manage their alcohol consumption or their calorie intake; however, they are sometimes criticised for being less flavourful than full-strength beers, or for tasting or actually being watered down.[3][4]
