Best Low-carb Beers in the Netherlands

Discover which ones are the best low-carb beers available in the Netherlands. Yes, beer contains a lot of carbs and sugars, therefore is not the best drink for a low-carb or ketogenic diet.

If you follow a simple low-carb diet, having a beer is not a big deal: you just cut the portion of carbs here and there, and you can have a well deserve blonde in the evening.
If you are following keto, you will want to think twice. Ketosis is not really going along with beer.

Will low-carb beer kick me out of ketosis?

Unfortunately, beer, even a low-carb option, will kick you out of ketosis. Beer is made with grains and therefore is against ketosis.

Read this interesting experiment, and decide if a beer is worth the ban from Ketoland.

Remember that you can still have wine, and keep your ketosis.

My favorite choice

My choice, would be the Amstel Blond. Is the lowest in carbs, and I like light blonds so for me is perfect.
Luckily, even if I like beer, I am not crazy about it. Therefore, is only an occasional treat to me.
Another amazing option is the Javer Fun, which is alcohol free, but tastes exactly as a light blonde beer.
