We're having technical difficulties with our Web site, so I thought I'd post you the info that ran in this week's column. I suppose there really is no way to drink healthy, but it's always kinda interesting to see the numbers on what you're drinking. I was most surprised to see that Bud Select has less calories but more alcohol than Bud Light. Interesting.

Love how my Guiness is more "nutritious" than Bud. However, it gets much worse by the time I add my shot of Chambord (almost gives the beer a chocolatey taste).
While white spirits are the way to go (and I do drink them), I will NEVER give up my glass of bourbon relaxation.
