Good for Sober Night
How low can they go? MGD 64, 55 Bud Select. Wow sounds great, I can drink beer and not get fat. No one wants to get fat, but I bet most people would like to somewhat feel the effects of alcohol. This is the reason why I can’t stand all the new ultra low cal beers like Bud Select 55, Beck’s Premier Light, and MGD 64. I know not everyone wants to get wasted, but you can’t even get somewhat drunk off these beers. I did the BAC calculation for MGD 64 that only has 2.8% alc. If I were to drink 6 beers in one hour I would only have a BAC of .069. (I am 180lbs). That is just a fucking joke if someone can still drive after drinking 6 beers in less than one hour. So drink these ultra low cal beers all you want, just know you are drinking beer that has less alcohol than Utah Beer.
Alcohol has a lot of calories and there is no way you can get around it. The question you should be asking what drink has the best punch for the calories? Any vodka and club soda or diet coke has a good bang per calorie. A low calorie beer that I really like is Michelob Ultra Amber, with ABV 5.0%, 114 calories, 3.7g carbs, 1.1g protein and 0.0g fat, per 12 oz bottle, it taste solid and it can actual get you drunk too. So next time you see one of those witty MDG 64 beer commercial comparing their beer to another drink, ask them to compare their alcohol instead.
Are you sick of all those dumb cash for gold commercials? Yeah me too. Gold is around $1200 per oz, this is very over priced. Yes gold is a hedge against inflation and the falling dollar, but when you can’t listen to the radio or watch the TV for more than 10 minuets without seeing a buy gold or cash for gold commercial, it is time to short gold or at least get out of the gold market. I call it the beanie baby effect. When your crazy aunt back in in the 90s was paying $400-$600 for a stupid stuffed animal you know things are wrong. The same thing happened during the internet and housing bubble. When everyone is talking out it, it is high time to get out. When you can’t explain why something is so expensive it means that is over priced.
