Your body deals with alcohol first. Booze isn't treated as full-on calories, but your body gets rid of what it considers a poison before it metabolizes anything else.

Drinking will destroy your gains.

You’ll actually lose muscle mass form drinking alcohol? How does that work

That's not what I said. Your body treats alcohol as a toxin and deals with it first.

The biggest problem with alcohol is it makes you all shitty for your training days.

Ohhhh, gotcha. So, is it better to just drink before a rest day then? Definitely wouldn’t touch it on a blast, but would it be fine occasionally whilst on a cut, so as long as I monitor caloric intake and it doesn’t impede my workouts?

Drinking is fine if you aren't on orals, but why even drink junk when you're trying to get big?

Every drink that you have dehydrates you and fucks your gains.

I love beer -- don't get me twisted, but I don't fuck with it when I cycle.

You want to cycle good, quality carbs during your cut. Oatmeal around your workouts is a great complex carb that provides slow release of energy for your workout and muscle maintenance on lower calories. Simple carbs, such as those from sugar, are very quickly processed and excess stored as fat. You should ditch processed sugars like those in pop tarts even in bulk mode, instead get real sugar from fruit. Fruit also has fiber, which is good for your insulin sensitivity. But during your cut you want to minimize sugar anyway. So get carbs from veggies, and eat a shitload of them because they are pretty low in carbs. And they help keep you full on a lower cal cut. And they have lots of micronutrients. And prob 1000 more reasons to load up on veggies during your cut.

Fats you want healthy unsaturated like those found in avocado, almonds, etc. You don't want to load up on saturated fat

How does one track the amount of carbs in veggies? They don't really give you nutrition facts on a head of lettuce

I don't track macros from (green) veggies. They're like freebies. Now if you're adding butters or sauces, etc then you'll want to track that.
