zero carbs in Scotch, rye, gin and vodka but your body will burn the alcohol before it burns fat.

Yup...zero carbs in most hard liquors. BUT...go easy on the alcohol. When you are low carbing, alcohol tends to hit you faster and harder than it would if you weren't low carbing. Also make sure you drink plenty of water during and after or you could wind up with a doozie of a hangover (dehydration will make a hangover MUCH worse).

and regardless of the "zero carbs" aspect, experience has told me that you will indeed be knocked out of ketosis as well....

Just a FYI
