Common myths about beer

February 24, 2025

Too many beers, too many mistakes? Let’s bust the myths and enjoy the brew without the confusion!

Drinking beer is all fun and games, but we’ve all heard quite a few myths about it – like beer should only be served cold, light beers are healthier, and, of course, the most famous one: beer causes a beer belly.

Here’s a breakdown of all the myths associated with beer.

Common Beer Myths

Drinking Order Doesn’t Matter
The myth that “beer before liquor makes you sicker” is false. It’s not the sequence but overconsumption that causes sickness. Moderation is what really matters.
Beer Belly Isn’t Exclusive to Beer
Gaining weight isn’t beer’s fault alone; it’s excessive calorie intake overall. Drinking in moderation, paired with a balanced diet, keeps that “beer belly” at bay.
Cans vs. Bottles

Modern canning preserves beer’s quality just as effectively as bottles. It’s all about personal preference – your beer will taste great either way!

Dark Beer Isn’t Always Stronger
Dark beer is often mistaken for being stronger or more bitter. The truth is, beer color depends on the roasted malt used and doesn’t dictate strength or flavor intensity.
Beer Shouldn’t Always Be Served Ice-Cold
While an ice-cold lager is refreshing, certain styles like stouts or ales reveal their complex flavors at slightly warmer temperatures (45–55°F). Serving temperature can elevate your experience.

So, What’s the Buzz?

Clear your doubts, sip guilt-free, and embrace the real beer vibe. 🍻 Socialize, share stories, and savor every foamy sip – all while drinking responsibly, of course.
