conscious macronutrients math new belgium numbers ranger science leave a comment not too long ago julia of craftbeer com and the brewers association posted an article pointing out the fact that the beer belly is a myth she gave a lot of good information and even pointed out that you need to have a balance in your life along with some moderation when it comes to drinking so while the active in active brewer once meant something else it is kind of a shift to another aspect of my life and reading the beer belly article made me want to add onto it apparently i am not the only one thinking about health when it comes to craft beer i do not work in the industry now but am hoping to make the move in a few short years there are many things to think about in order to have a healthy life while still enjoying your favorite beverages i would give this article by oliver of literature and libation a read that focuses on consumer health if you would like a different insight into this topic when it all comes down to it nutrition labels on food products are a lie a whole lot of useless information that doesn t always add up while there are a few things you should pay attention to there are only three that really matter the macronutrients protein carbohydrates and fats fat julia pointed out that beer has no fat so when it comes to beer you can throw that information out the window the only concern i would look for here is with adjuncts looking at the way they interact with the beer and what moves into the finished product when it comes to calorie counts 1 gram of fat will equate to 9 calories this will be important later or when looking at nutrition labels at home protein there is a small amount of protein in you beer it comes along from the raw material in the malting and mashing process depending on the filtration and clarification process the majority of it may be removed so it may not be of a concern here either 1 gram of protein will come out to 4 calories in this case carbohydrates so this is where some say the real issue is with beer and the caloric intake but this is not entirely true while there is a considerable amount of sugar in unfermented beer wort when the yeast get through with their job it converts the majority of carbohydrates into alcohol and co2 a typical carbohydrate will come out to 4 calories per 1 gram as the case is with protein but alcohol is in a class of it s own alcohol alcohol is often considered the 4th macronutrient and the final piece of the puzzle to coming up with full calorie counts for 1 gram of alcohol you will get 7 calories what it comes down to is the ability of your body to process the alcohol when you are drinking your body wants to burn up the alcohol and use it as it s first source of fuel it also processes it and begins the elimination process from your body in real short order while your body is burning through the alcohol it will not use other energy sources as it would normally do while you are not drinking burning fats or carbohydrate sources as julia mentioned in her article not having a balance from input to output is a major culprit of the beer belly many people eat while they are drinking to counter balance the effects of the alcohol this leads to the ingestion of extra calories it is not uncommon to have a mini binge eating session while drinking and not even notice so how can you figure out the calorie count of your favorite beer start with the grams of alcohol in your beer and go from there in order to determine the grams of alcohol in a beer you can use a simple equation while there are a few out there this one has led me to the most consistent results compared to what is posted by breweries or other sources online density of ethanol x volume in ml x abv as an example we will use new belgium fat tire with the known information plugged in it looks like this 0 789 x 355ml approximately 12oz x 052 fat tire is 5 2 abv with these numbers in the equation it comes out to 14 56 grams of alcohol in 12oz of fat tire when you multiply that by the 7 calories per gram of alcohol you come up to 101 92 calories but that is only part of the story you still need to account for the residual carbohydrates in your beer though that gets a bit difficult without knowing the intimate details of the beer for the ease of estimation it is safe to say that you would attain half of the total number of calories of alcohol from carbohydrates so in our situation 101 92 2 101 92 152 88 calories in a single bottle of fat tire according to the website fat tire has 160 calories per serving not that far off here is another example of the calculation at work new belgium ranger ipa which clocks in at 6 5 abv 789 x 355ml x 065 this comes out to 18 21 grams of alcohol we then multiply this by 7 to account for the calories contributed from the alcohol and that comes to 127 47 calories divide that in half and add the calories from alcohol and we get 127 47 2 127 47 191 21 calories according to the website new belgium ranger ipa is 187 calories per serving remember these are just estimates and you would need a lot more information to get a more accurate count also don t forget to adjust accordingly for your serving size google can fill in any blanks in conversion of ounces to milliliters or figuring out the abv of a beer if it is not posted but the density of ethanol will not change other factors to consider would be how sweet vs how dry the beer is though you should be in the ballpark with these estimates give it a try for a few known calorie beers and see what you notice cheers caloric breakdown of beer create a free website or blog at wordpress com subscribe subscribed active brewer sign me up already have a wordpress com account log in now privacy active
