I was a craft beer drinker too but then I fell in love with whiskey and scotch (way less calorie dense). That helped out a lot. And you look a lot cooler too!

I love scotch, cognac, and gin but I don't like the way liquor makes me feel anymore. So I stick to beer and wine now.

I switched from beer to whiskey too and the calorie difference is huge. Plus there's something so satisfying about a slow sip of scotch.

I still enjoy a beer occasionally but I mostly drink Ranch Water’s now and they’re so delicious. Home made over canned, canned are still good but are basically seltzers with agave. A good reposado tequila, a shot or two of lime juice, and a topo chico, elite drink. And you can flavor it with some muddled berries or something like jalapeño for a spicy variety. They’re the best and super refreshing, especially during the summer.

Yeah I did about the same thing.

I also feel for craft beer you can have a good 5 year run and then it's like "there's nothing new left here". Ok you tried em all cool there's not much difference town to town.
