TIL Guinness is a light beer, with less calories than most other beers including Budweiser and Coors. It's made with barley that's been roasted longer, but ultimately with less fermentable sugars and adjuncts, so in the end, it has less alcohol and calories than some of its counterparts.

In general, the higher the alcohol by volume, the higher the calories and how heavy the beer seems. Stouts, porters, and black lagers that hover in the range of four to five percent alcohol by volume can have less alcohol and calories than a light pilsner that feels and tastes like water. Take, for example, Guinness.

An IPA style beer has an ABV from 6% on the low end to 10% on the high end, although the higher alcohol ones are labeled as Double IPA of Imperial. That is probably more substantial than "regular" beer, however that is defined. Another thing to consider is the body of an IPA.
