Your bg is higher than it should be, both before bed & fasting, it will drop through the night after the sugar hit from the larger goes, most people tend to have wine or spirits as it doesn't spike you quite as much
 
Hello! Alcohol can reduce your bloods sometimes as the short acting sugar in it can cause a spike in blood sugar level, then a drop! So yeah it's pretty normal but alcohol can also bring about inconsistency, so you may drink the same another day and something different happens like a high or even for it to drop lower. Always keep a closer eye on your sugars after drinking! Hope that helps! S
