Alcohol-Free Beer Calories vs Regular Beer — How Much Do You Save?

Regular beer vs alcohol-free: the numbers

A 330ml can of regular lager (5% ABV) typically contains 140-160 calories. The same volume of alcohol-free lager can contain as few as 16-25 calories. That is a saving of 120+ calories per can — or around 360 calories across a three-can evening.

Over a week, if you drink six beers that saving adds up to over 700 calories — roughly equivalent to two full meals.
