Define a "few" drinks 
If you're used to running carbs you may rightly feel a bit tired the first few weeks of going paleo, and the alcohol certainly won't help with that at all. However, with regards to weight gain, are you doing any physical activity? At the end of the day total calories still matter (I'm talking fat/carbs; proteins make things a little more complicated), so watch types of food AND amounts.
