I thought it was understood that alcohol (unless it is something like a glass of wine) has no benefit is only detrimental to your physical and spiritual health/mindset.
Why do you say that wine is healthy? Wine has between 2 and 3 times higher percentage of alcohol in it than beer. So you react so strongly against the idea of drinking one beer, but then you promote something that has 3 times more alcohol in it? That doesn't make any sense to me.

Beer specifically has high estrogen.
Estrogen=obesity=low testosterone. A weak male populace to be slaughtered easily.
This is very variable depending on the specific beer, and the specific kind of hops, and the amount of hops, and other ingredients. They are not all the same.
There is also estrogen in the water supply in many places. Due to women taking birth control pills that produce enormous amounts of estrogen, which then goes into the water cycle and cannot be easily filtered out. Plus some kinds of microscopic plastic particles in the water supply also irritate your body and cause a reaction that makes you produce estrogen. You can find contamination like this in anything if you are looking for it.

I agree that liquor is dangerous and harmful. Which is why I have never said that those are a good idea.
Beer is basically bread flavored soda. The most dangerous thing about it is probably all the carbs and calories, which will make you fat if you drink a lot of it because you're consuming a lot more calories than you realize. Some are also made with GMO corn or other things that are not good. I think Guinness is made with fish bladders.
I don't think anybody should drink a lot of beer, because that would be harmful. But my whole point is that one beer occasionally is not going to harm anyone the way that some over-reacting people act like it will. Then the same guy that is over-reacting about a beer is saying that wine is better, with 3 times more alcohol.
If you want to avoid alcohol, then I respect that. But most people consume alcohol every day without realizing it. A loaf of processed bread from the supermarket actually has a lot more alcohol in it than people think. Regular soda, and almost all things that contain artificial or concentrated flavors, contain alcohol because all of the flavorings are dissolved in alcohol. And they don't need to list it in the ingredients because it's a "flavor carrier."
And I don't like craft hipster beer. Sapporo is a pretty popular brand. But the only reason I even suggested Sapporo is only because it tastes very similar to Heineken. So if somebody's favorite was Heineken, they could switch to the other one instead and stop giving money to Heineken.
