    The cans of beer that I buy have ingredients and nutrition info like a soda can does.

    Haven't seen any on liquor bottles though.

    I don't have any liquor bottles, but my wine bottles have ingredients info, but no nutrition info.

    Depends on from where they were sourced.

    My Itallian red wine has nutritional info, French sourced white wine has nutritional info, American sourced red wine has nothing.

    A short search states that the US doesnt have to have labels on alcohol because it's not regulated by the FDA.

    In Canada beer alcohol isn't required to have nutritional info.
