WHY IT'S NOT KETO-FRIENDLY
- Not recommended for keto due to high net carbs relative to typical daily limits
- May be used sparingly on flexible low-carb approaches if you adjust other carbs
- Alcohol is prioritized for metabolism, temporarily pausing fat/ketone utilization
- Lower-carb alcoholic alternatives exist (spirits, dry wine, hard seltzer)
- Best avoided for consistent ketosis and appetite control
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
MINIMAL CONSUMPTION
If you choose to drink, limit to ~100 ml (3.4 oz) to keep carbs near ~3g and sip slowly.
RARE OCCASIONS
Reserve stout for special occasions; budget carbs earlier in the day and skip other starches/sugars.
PAIRED WITH PROTEIN
Pair with zero- to very-low-carb protein (grilled steak, salmon) to blunt appetite swings.
SHARING STRATEGY
Split a single bottle to enjoy flavor while minimizing your individual carb load.
