only you can determine that. however, i hope you take some time and read the hundreds of threads and posts here from people that thought they would be able to moderate and ended up worse off than before.
although "alcoholic" is much more than the quantity or frequency that a person drinks, looking at the label isnt a good way to determine if alcohol is causing problems and should be addressed.
