Also, in my personal opinion it tastes better but I know most people probably disagree with me on that.
Otherwise, though, I totally hear what you're saying about beer. I have it sometimes but my preferred beverage is bourbon.

Ahh that'll be the source of my confusion then.
After reading up on it it would appear that Lite beers in the US means low calorie whereas in most parts of the world it means low alcohol (Under 3.5).
Forget I said anything
