Icing probably has a much higher fat percentage. But knowing this information is valuable. When I was ignorant I would share a few of these with friends guilt free.. now I’m going to have to consider this. Thanks…

Thus you don’t waste precious calories on food AND you need fewer beers for a night out.

Genius. I realize.

You can’t display calories without also displaying carbohydrates, portein, sodium, fat.

Look on your typical light beer label. What’s on that is what has been required for DECADES omn labels and ad info when you try to sneak in and simply display calories.

Sorry, but the brewers didn’t do their homework. This requirement is decades old.

Just the other day I had two World Wide Stouts after a big dinner. Guess I could have skipped the appetizer and dessert.

I was stunned by some of the calorie levels I have recently learned about. Many big beers in big bombers are like drinking a great big bracing mug of icing at the end of each day.

On a side note, a lot of these are lower than I thought they would be.

That is then responsibility of the Alcohol Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB).
