Battle of the Beers!

Now that so many people are counting calories, beer-makers are in a full-on brawl to see who comes out with the lowest-calorie brew. MGD 64 is everywhere, with TV commercials showing people just how tiny an amount of other bar drinks they'd get for the same 64 calories... and it's a huge success.

But NOW the Anheuser-Busch folks have released their rebuttal -- a beer with a mere 55 calories.


Whoa! Select 55 is currently being tested in fifteen metro areas -- Tampa, San Diego, Dallas, and Green Bay are among them. The company plans to expand to even more test markets this fall and is hopeful a national release is on the way. Game on!

And, could 44-calorie beer be far behind? Or, maybe even 0 calories?!?!?
