Master 2033 | Subject: RE: Is beer a recovery drink. A good Hefeweizen has always been a great recovery drink for me... full of carbs and unfiltered for a touch of protein! |

Cycling Guru 15134 Fulton, MD | Subject: RE: Is beer a recovery drink. Realistic answer .... no, there is not that much carbo. in them, especially compared to a simple energy drink like Gatorade. Beer drinker's answer ..... yes, of course! Especially a nice frosty Guinness! |

Especially a nice frosty Guinness! Except that "frosty" and Guiness should never be used together. Guiness and cool are an appropriate word pair. |

Veteran 405 Memphis, TN | Subject: RE: Is beer a recovery drink. Be careful how much recovery you do because beer apparently has a lot of testosterone in it. |

Tons of carbs and a good reminder to reward yourself once in a while.....Young's? :-D I refer to it as PMS beer - alcohol & chocolate, everything you need to feel better. Race days = beer recovery. |

Especially a nice frosty Guinness! Agreed that frosty and Guinness should never be used in conjunction with each other. General rule of thumb is that the darker the beer, the warmer it is served. As for the double chocolate stout, you can't be beat there...Young's makes the best, but as another hobby, I am a homebrewer as well. I have made a decent representation, but the real deal is still the best. Kevin |

Not sure about a recovery drink but it sure isn't an endurance formula! ever try one of those on a tredmill? I was only buzzed but I still almost fell off the thing. but my vote is YES for mental recovery. a good solid NO for the physical side of it. Your body has enough post-race/workout toxins to deal with without adding alcohol to the mix. |

We have Guinness and Extra Stout. Either one is a great drink in my opinion. However, get a crappy pint that's pulled from a CO2 tap and not a Nitrogen tap, and it's just gross... Kevin |
