• Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 1.6 g − 0 g = 1.6 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
• Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Light Beer gives 0.8 g.
• Energy density is calories per gram. At 0.29 kcal/g, Light Beer is very low on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.

Logging Light Beer: what to know

Regular beer reads 43 kcal per 100 g, and light beer drops to 29. USDA's portion is a whole can or bottle at 354 g and 103 kcal, which is easier to log than a pour into a glass. This is an all-brand average, so the label on your own can beats it.
