Ok, I quit drinking alcohol of any sort 14 years ago. But, when I did drink, I could never drink beer on a hot day, made me even thirstier. What say you, beer drinkers?
Any alcohol makes me sweat more than I already am. Don't need that on a hot day. Coffee has the same effect, so I don't drink that either during the summer.
Drinking a hot beverage when you are hot actually turns on your bodys "A/C" because your body temp is being raised even more and your body attempts to cool down...at least that is what a lot of people say

It works,,for some folks, but ya gotta gulp it down to switch on the body A/C.
Drives the welfare/less fortunate folks crazy, when I wheel up next to them at the stoplight in the new Peterbuilt, swigging coffee when it is 108° out,,lol. the A/C is on and throwing ice crystals at me. snug as a bug.
I love hoppy ales, but when I'm working outside in the heat, I prefer something lighter like a Bud, Corona, or Michelob. Beer never made me thirstier...or at least I didn't remember it.
Can't drink beer after beer in the direct heat, have to wait till sundown.
One of the worst ways to parch yourself. alcohol absorbs moisture, coupled with sweating hard, makes for a severly dehydrated person, no matter how many you throw down.
I don't drink beer after beer, just one or two now and again.
I prefer to go to an airconditioned bar!! If it's really hot out, throw them down fast, before they turn to pi$$ in the can. :happy0030: OR, get pony bottles! If I'm workin' I'm not drinkin', because if I'm drinkin' I'm not working!
Geez, I could go for a cold one right now - but I gotta mow the yard. . . maybe in a couple hours!!
Beer is for drinkin' while we clean up the shop and clean and put away the tools we used that day.........by then, it's later in the day, past the hottest part.........and, it does get hot here.

I drink water all day long especially when it is hot outside and if I'm working outside I never drink a beer until the work is done, tools or what not picked up and everything squared away...then it's time to find a shady spot and pop a cold one...and I do like beer Yet for quenching a thirst nothing beats H2O in my experience.
MGD for me, But it must be so cold that when I open it ice forms inside. About the only time I drink beer is after I get through mowing the yard and then three is the limit.
Beer should be consumed in the presence of a double cheese pizza, with extra peperoni. Otherwise I rarely drink it.
