The health benefits of moderate consumption and the damaging consequences of excessive consumption of alcohol are well documented.1 Injury is an important alcohol related health problem but while the role of alcohol in particular types of injury has been studied,2 there is little information on particular types of alcoholic beverage and injuries. This contrasts with the literature on cardiovascular disease and alcohol where the relation with the consumption of different beverages has been extensively explored. The evidence here indicates that there is no specific benefit associated with one type of beverage; the extra benefit associated with wine in some studies can be explained by different drinking patterns.1
