But if you are on a diet then you shouldn't be on the gargle atall :pac:
This should help you though it's obviously not brand specific

The O'Hara's website gives the gravity of the IPA as 13.5° Plato, which equates to an OG of 1.055. We also know that it's 5.2% ABV, and to get that from a 1.055 wort it has to finish around 1.015. I put those two gravities into a couple of online calculators and they gave me a number around 181 calories for a 12 USoz serving, which is 355mls. So by my working out, a 500ml bottle of O'Hara's IPA contains 255 calories.
You're the man BeerNut, that'll do me.
Part of my diet/lifestyle program (lose a bit of weight, get more in shape, nothing too drastic) involves limiting my calorie intake per day to 1,810 which I track using http://www.myfitnesspal.com. Fortunately I enjoy exercise and the calories burned doing exercise are added to your daily allowance.
When I want a few beers (weekends mostly) I try to do a bit more exercise to earn the credit.
Using http://42.195km.net/e/treadsim I can see that 40 minutes jogging on the treadmill (about my max) gives me 1228 calories to play with which I now know equates to apprximately 5 bottles of O'Hara's.
Perfect for a Saturday night and if I sneak an extra one or two I'll just have to work off a few more calories in the sack

How many are ?
It seemingly depends on how much you drink, your body appears to get used to it and so the more you drink the less each one has an effect (I don't mean the more in a single session I mean being an alcoholic or heavy drinker).
You will hear doctors etc using this forumla of an excess of 3500kcal leading to 1lb fat gain. This is why you hear them say stuff like "give up that 400kcal muffin each moring and lose X pounds of fat over a year".
If the 3500kcal =1lb fat gain thing was true for alcohol I would not fit out the door, the likes of Shane MacGowan would be a whale. I readily lost fat while still drinking a large amount of calories. Some beers will still be naturally high in sugar, heineken is about 1/3rd the sugar of coke per ml. Very few beers publish their calorie content, sites seem to pluck them out of the air. I know cans of 4.2% guinness here used to have 170kcal per 500ml on them which is relatively low.
http://www.nytimes.com/1992/02/04/health/why-the-body-may-waste-the-calories-from-alcohol.htmlyes, for a moderate social drinker who has a cocktail before dinner or an occasional glass of wine or a beer. For these people, alcohol calories can indeed add up. Body Learns to Waste Calories
But chronic heavy drinking can prime certain metabolic processes and, in effect, train the body to waste the seven calories a gram that alcohol ordinarily provides.
For example, weight gain was negligible in alcoholics who were given 2,000 calories of alcohol daily on top of the 2,500 calories from foods they consumed to maintain their weight. But when the same number of additional calories were fed as chocolate, a steady weight gain resulted.
Thus, the energy waste associated with a heavy intake of alcohol cannot be attributed to a reduction in the intake of other foods. More likely, it results from interference with the body's ability to derive energy from other foods.
According to Dr. Lieber's report, experiments in laboratory animals and in heavy drinkers found that alcohol calories did indeed count for animals and people who consumed a very low-fat diet.0 -
