Press Release

How much Chuck could a woodchuck chug if a woodchuck could chug Chuck? That’s the question on everyone’s mind now that Chuckanut Brewery has introduced Chuck Light in bottles and on tap. This isn’t your ordinary light beer but a craft beer that’s made with the special attention Chuckanut Brewery is known to take when brewing. Using the best raw ingredients and carefully crafting a beer that when tested is only 103 calories per 12 oz pour, this is a great light lager. Just in case you want more beer though, Chuckanut packages Chuck Light and all its beers in half liter bottles, that’s more like 16.9 ounces of awesome low calorie beer!

Using a combination of light colored malts and gentle hops with a dry finish, this balanced easy drinking beer is for those that want to watch their calorie intake. Always delicious but lighter in style and flavor, this is an all day kind of beer great with salads, fresh veggies, seafood and bbqs. Chuck Light compliments food choices rather than overpowers whatever is on your plate. The Oregon Beer Lab tested Chuck Light and found it has  103 Calories, 0 Fat, 1g Sugar, 6g Carbohydrates and 1g Protein per 12 ounce pour. Even if you aren’t looking for low calories you can enjoy Chuck Light for its fresh flavor and quaffable taste!
