    And here I thought it was water, not hops.

    I'm a firm believer in any scientific studies that confirm my enjoyment of beer.

    Thank you so much for posting this...not for the article itself, but rather the news story in the website's side column where it reports that Rod Stewart is being sued for breaking a fan's nose with a soccer ball during a performance. Had a good laugh.

    Water, malted barley and then hops

    Xanthohumol = improved memory
    alcohol = reduced memory
    So you can drink beer to remember...or to forget. :wink:

    This is true, but the only subject you gain perfect recall on is 'Beer'.

    I'd have to make many trips to the little boys room if I drank 2000 liters.

    This makes a bunch of Country Songs about "drinking to forget" pretty obsolete, huh?

    I don't think we have a clue in regards to our well being. There are "vitamins" inherit in all the foods we ingest that haven't been discovered yet.

    Beer is healthy shit.

    Hops are basically a green vegetable/leaf, like green tea.

    Also these studies always say "Oh but you'd need 10 bazillion beers to equal the study doses"...Yet what they mean is you'd need 10 bazillion pissy adjunct lagers to equal the study dose.

    Wow, I forgot where I put my beer.

    Yeah I'm convinced beer is making me less intelligent.
