Drinking beer after a workout has found to be effective as the carbonation in beer helps to quench the thirst and that its carbohydrate content can help replace lost calories.
The study involved a group of students who were asked to workout until their body temperature reached 104 degrees.

Later, half of the students were giving beer while the researchers gave water to the other half.

The results showed that hydration effect in those who drank beer was "slightly better" than those who had consumed water.

The results were announced at a press conference in Granada.
