I also have heard that wine can be good. From what I've heard the alcohol itself can have some benefits. But there are also other compounds that offer benefits. Thus, wine and beer appear to be "good," but I've heard little or no good things about hard alcohol.
Of course, moderation is important. I knew of someone who loved to drink. When he mowed his lawn, he'd have a can of beer at each end to "reward" each pass. (Then, in time, he got a riding lawn mower, and just carried a can of beer.) I believe he had some health problems, and I'm sure that his heavy drinking didn't help. (Although, sometimes, when lap swimming goes poorly, this system sounds good.)
