* A 12-ounce Budweiser -- 145 calories

* A 12-ounce Guinness Draft in bottle -- 128 calories

* 1.5 ounces of Abslout -- 98 calories

* 1.5 ounces of Captain Morgan's Original Spiced Rum -- 86 calories

* 1.5 ounces of Jose Cuervo Clasico Tequila -- 96 calories

* A 5-ounce glass of Beringer Chardonnay -- 125 calories

* A 5-ounce glass of Gallo Cabernet Sauvignon -- 120 calories
