Strength and calories

Median calories per 12 fl oz by alcohol content in this list:

0.5% to under 4.5% ABV: median 113 calories (72 beers)
4.5% to under 5.5% ABV: median 151 calories (76 beers)
5.5% to under 7% ABV: median 180 calories (57 beers)
7% or more ABV: median 216 calories (28 beers)

Alcohol carries about 7 calories per gram, and carbs about 4, so a stronger beer has more calories even when the carbs are the same.

How we ranked

Every product in this category from the brewers' own nutrition pages and sheets, scaled to 12 fl oz when the brewer lists another serving. Products without a stated serving size or without the number being ranked are left out. Craft and regional beers that do not publish nutrition data are not in the list.

Molson Coors numbers come from its US nutrition sheet dated 2021. Recipes can change, so a current can may differ slightly.

For some stronger beers the brewer lists a 5 fl oz serving. We scale those to 12 fl oz so they line up with the rest, and the page says so.
