One of the most consumed alcoholic beverages worldwide is beer. After water and tea, it is the oldest and the third most popular beverage. Grain cereals are fermented and then brewed to create beer. Beer can also occasionally be made from oats, rice, maize, and wheat, however it is typically made with malted barley.Beer has a much lower alcohol concentration than whiskies, rums, and vodkas. The alcohol content of modern beer ranges from 4% to 6% by volume. Nonetheless, a lot of beer manufacturers could produce their beverages with an ABV higher than 40%.After working hard for several hours in the sun outside, nothing is more soothing than a nice, cool drink. Unexpectedly, a lot of people prefer to have beer cans or bottles nearby rather than water when working hard in the summertime. Even while excessive beer consumption can result in a beer belly, you can still enjoy the beverage without running the risk of gaining too much weight. These are a few advantages that drinking beer in the summertime can provide.1. Reduce StressIt can be challenging to perform physical labor under the sun. Excessive weariness and energy loss might result from your body experiencing too much stress. Numerous studies have shown that having two glasses of beer can effectively lower tension or anxiety related to work. But you have to be careful not to get alcohol dependant because that would be more detrimental than beneficial.2. Quench Your ThirstYou will become thirsty extremely quickly if you perform physical labor in the sun. Water will just make you feel less thirsty. But drinking cold beer instead of just plain water will help you both rehydrate and feel more energised. Your ability to perform your physical work outside will improve as a result.3. Beer Is the Perfect Drink to Have With FriendsIf you routinely meet your circle of friends every weekend, having a beer can make such social events more fun. Catch up on those lost moments in life and go back to your school or college days with your buddies over a couple bottles of chilled beer.4. Beer Can Protect Your HeartRecent research indicates that individuals who consume modest amounts of beer have a lower risk of heart attacks than those who do not drink any at all. Furthermore, beer helps shield you from heart attacks and other heart-related conditions. Research indicates that consuming alcohol in moderation can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.5. Lower Cholesterol LevelsBeer has soluble fiber, which lowers LDL, or bad cholesterol. Consuming soluble fiber not only lowers your LDL cholesterol but also helps your body maintain a healthy blood sugar level. On the other hand, excessive alcohol use interferes with your body's natural capacity to absorb vitamins and minerals. Your body is unable to efficiently burn the stored fat as a result.6. Enhances Cognitive AbilitiesRecent research indicates that middle-aged adults who drink alcohol have better overall bodily function. It demonstrates that moderate alcohol consumption can enhance cognitive performance, even though it does not advocate excessive alcohol usage.
