HOPPY NEWS

A recent Harris Poll found that craft beer fans deemed themselves more "health conscious" than regular beer guzzlers, and drank less overall. Kathleen Zelman, R.D., director of nutrition at WebMD, explains the surprising ways small batch can leave you and your tab a little lighter:

More filling
Dark beers are heavier, and microbrew versions can offer even heartier, almost dessert-like flavors that'll satisfy you with one bottle.

More hops
Craft breweries go for bold flavor, so they're often hopped up on those plants. That bitter bite calls for slower sipping.

More alcohol
Many craft beer brands offer bottles with 6 plus percent alcohol by volume versus the average 3 to 5 percent in a non-craft brew, which means fewer pours to get a buzz.
