    It's the polyphenols that are good for you. They're considered anti-oxidants. They're known to exist in wine, but this the first time I've heard of the benefits of beer.

    Everything in moderation.

    Yes Polyphenols have benefits as anti-oxidants ,but their benefit when consumed with Alcohol is voided...But consuming in moderation is fine ,but I just get a kick out of recomending ...ANY BEVERAGE...containing Alcohol as healthy in any way ,because the toxcicity of Alcohol voids any health benefit the beverage offers ...

    Blasphemy LOL
    Its even biblical, Paul told Timothy that a little wine is good for the tummy
    Remember that in moderation was not judged at the same level as we do
    Pretty sure God wouldn't have us partaking in something bad!!!!

    A friend of mine suffered from blood-clots in his femoral artery and passed out and spent about two weeks in the hospital. When he was getting ready to go home, he asked the doc about drinking beer (one of his favorite past times) and the doc said no more than 6 per week.
    So my friend asked him if he could have all 6 at once.....:biggrin_25525:

    I used to make home made wine when I lived in NY.
    The basement of the house stayed at just the right temperature.
    The best I made was Strawberry wine, that 5 gallon carboy went fast!
    We need to recommend which is better for drivers, myself included when off duty.

    You need to create your own version of the Boston tea party!
    You can set up a big collection pit, dump in kegs of beer and sell tickets to people who can fill up there mugs from a tap of the collection point!
    This would be good publicity and the money raised could be used for legal BS.
    I'll buy a ticket-
