Vodka vs beer
A shot of vodka has about 88 kcal, a half litre of beer about 215. Vodka is 127 kcal lower per drink, before any mixer.
The difference
127 kcal
Vodka is just alcohol and water, so all its calories come from the alcohol. Beer has alcohol plus the leftover sugar from the grain, and a lot more liquid.
Three shots come to 264 kcal, more than one half litre of beer. A vodka and full sugar cola is about 227, a pint of beer about 245.
If you want the lower number, a diet mixer or soda water keeps it near the shot.
