If there are less malts in these lower alcohol beers, would the calories be lower than a beer with a similar abv? The only session IPA I've found with calorie information is Notch's Left of the Dial listed at 4.3% abv and 140 calories. This isn't particularly light considering Sam Adams Light is 4.3% abv at 119 calories.
