Suggestions For Your New Beers Resolution

New Year, New You! So how does beer enter this equation? There’s a brewski out there for almost every resolution! Read on to find out where you can find one.

Looking to shed a few pounds but still want to enjoy a beer or two with your friends? Here are a few six-packs that won’t ruin your six-pack. Michelob Ultra (96 calories, 2.6g carbs) was created for those with an active lifestyle. It’s a perfectly balanced lager with a clean, refreshing taste. Taste buds like little more bite? Try an imported light beer. Heineken Light (99 calories, 6.8g carbs) offers a unique taste with quality ingredients, a fruity character and a laid back attitude. Heineken Light has been named the World Beer Championships’ Best Tasting Light Beer for the second year running…and hey, it’s good enough for Doogie Howser. Prefer a darker beer? Yuengling Light Lager (99 calories) is a beautifully rich-colored brew with deep amber highlights that finishes smooth and clean.

Removing gluten from your diet in 2016? Well, don’t give up on beer. Redbridge, made without wheat or barley, is a rich, full-bodied lager brewed from sorghum for a moderately hopped taste. Omission beers are made from barley, hops, water and yeast, brewed using a proprietary process to remove gluten. Omission Pale Ale is a hop-forward American Pale Ale with a floral aroma complimented by a caramel malt body. You can find Redbridge at Krogers, Smoker Friendly’s, and Riesbecks. Omission Pale Ale is sold at Kroger in Wheeling.
