Gimme the scoop on Mich. Ultra

Okay- I know you've all seen the new Michelob Ultra in the stores. I hear it was "made for the low-carb lifestyle." When I looked at the package, however, I noticed that there is no breakdown of how many carbs/beer or any sugar content etc... WHAT IS UP WITH THAT? Don't they know that those labels are our saving grace? I did see that the box said something about less than so many carbs with an * at the end (meaning, "see more info") but didn't find any more info!! HELP! I LOVE BEER!

Michelob Ultra has 2.6 carbs a beer. The next best low carb choice would be Miller Lite which I think has 4 carbs.

if you'd rather have an import...

Beck's Light is a decent choice, but it has 6 carbs a bottle.

There are a ba-zillions threads about this topic on the forum. Try a search and you'll probably find many of them in the LC Products area...

...I bought Ultra and think it's OK. It's not as full bodied, obviously, but it'll do.

Good luck!
