alcohol has 7 calories per gram, more than protein and carbs.
even though i dont believe in cutting out carbs and eating fats instead, im pretty sure alcohol will just hurt your progress.

If you are on a diet, you shouldn't be consuming empty calories like alcoholic beverages. Alcohol itself has tons of calories. Beer has the most calories, then wine, then most liquors. Vodka has calories. (Yes, even pure alcohol like everclear has plenty of calories). Most drinks are basically alcohol plus carbs and/or sugars (and sugars are just simple carbs). Some drinks like Bailey's have cream or animal fat- we'll leave those out of the discussion.
Alcohol is a chemical. Calories are simply the units of energy required to break those chemical bonds. So yes, alcohol has caloric value.
Since you are getting very little nutrition from it, alcohol is the FIRST thing you should eliminate from your diet. Cutting out alcohol and eating a healthy amount of nutritious food will mean that you don't have to go on a diet in the first place.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do though. I understand the "healthful benefits" of a glass of red wine- and sometimes a few beers too!

Answer: Vodka.
But if you drink light beer, that is also.

I once read that the alcohol with the least calories and sugar is vodka.
