How Many Calories Are in a Pint of Lager?

A pint of standard 5% ABV lager contains around 220–250 calories — roughly the same as a large bag of crisps or a slice of pizza. Drink four pints on a Saturday night and you've consumed the calorie equivalent of a full extra meal. Here's the breakdown across the UK's most popular lagers, and what you can switch to instead.
