Interesting Fact about Miller Lite & Miller 64

This really threw me for a loop and well, my mind is kinda blown here.

I did some calculations:
Name : ABV - Calories in a 6 pack - Ounces of Alcohol in a 6 pack - Calories Per Ounce of alchohol
Miller Genuine Draft: 4.7 - 858 - 3.384 - 253.546
Miller Lite: 4.2 - 576 - 3.024 - 190.476
Miller 64: 2.8 - 384 - 2.016 - 190.476

How is miller lite the identical amount of calories per ounce of alcohol as miller 64? So the only significant difference is the amount of water? But it pretty much tastes like miller lite, it doesn't taste 33% more watery? What the? Aliens?

Also, this makes zero sense:

Alcohol: Nutrient and Poison | Annals of Internal Medicine

The caloric density of ethanol is 7.1kcal/g
Ok so, 2.016oz = 57.152639g
57.152639g * 7.1 = 405.7837369/6 = 67.63062281666667 but ... They claim it's 384/6 = 64!

But "Miller 64 has only 64 calories"

Miller64

Even if they rounded to 7.0 it would still be 400.068473, not 384!

Also, excluding the fact that apparently the beer burns calories? How does it taste like beer if all of calories come from alcohol???

Aliens!

      I'm not an Oprah fan or anything but apparently she has a thyroid problem.

      I'm also not going to rip on one of the best marketers who ever lived on marketing forums.

      Net worth of $3.2 billion, pretty amazing if you ask me.

      Most of the members here would make more money if they watched her and took notes.

    Bitten.

    Gonna substitute a random eunuch from the other thread an' wait for the backlash.

    Stoopid thing about the Miller is, I can shovel it in all day an' only push minimally at the surroundin' air.

    I am a genetic wraith.

      I think that's kind the point of light beer. It makes you feel full so you drink less, it's also hard to drink a ton of it when you're running to the bathroom every 5 minutes.

    I consumed the low cal beer the last few years I drank. Plus Bud Lime. I love lime beer. Mmmmm. Still tasty to think about...

    Four years after stopping all alcohol consumption, I can tell you the beer had absolutely zero effect on my weight. For me at least, this carb/calorie thing is a myth.

    And as a builder I worked for in the mid-2000s said upon seeing Coke Zero..."Coke has finally figured out how to sell us nothing."

    It's all marketing sham.

    The only interesting fact about Miller's is that their product is actually classified as beer.
