Cos it's a liquid!

not only does drinking beer mean a lot of liquid intake, alcohol is also a diuretic, which means you will pee more

well dude beer is like 85% water...................

You pee because it is liquid but also it is a diuretic, but ofcourse that may not be exactly true, it might be that you are just drinking too much of the stuff all at once. stop drinking it if you do not want to pee a lot. ;)

Drinking beer or alcohol for that matter, can result in high blood sugar which is a condition when an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood. Hyperglycemia is primarily a symptom of diabetes in which there are elevated levels of blood sugar, or glucose, in the bloodstream. With Type I diabetes, hyperglycemia results from malfunctioning in the supply of insulin, the chemical that enables cells to receive energy from glucose.

Many times when I have a few beers I get the feeling of tiredness and almost want to sleep. Also my strength feels like it’s being sucked right out of my body. This is a result of increased sugars in my blood and what makes me a diabetic.

Some of the side effects of drinking excessive alcohol are:

Polyphagia - frequent hunger, especially pronounced hunger
Polydipsia - frequent thirst, especially excessive thirst
Polyuria - frequent urination, especially excessive urination
Blurred vision
Fatigue
Poor wound healing (cuts, scrapes, etc.)
Dry mouth
Dry or itchy skin
Impotence (male)

Beer is ideal for peeing,, coz it is made of Jute, (Jute and Barley) are natural diuretics, remove oxalates (friction of urination) from kidneys...

Alcohol is a diuretic, so it encourages the body to shed water. This is why you can drink one 12oz beer and seem to pee out a 40. This is also the chief cause of hangovers.

Beer isn't the only alcohol that does it, any alcohol with cause you to run to the bathroom a lot. Beer just has the added benefit of adding extra volumes of liquid into the picture.

**and in reply to Dawn**

Alcohol is a depressant, feeling weak, tired, and sleepy are all products of a depressed Central Nervous System. That is in fact why most of us drink!

when i drink liquor, or stuff with hard liquor in it, i have to pee almost INSTANTLY like after 1 drink, and it's just a little pee too not a lot lol just htought you'd like to know

Because when it goes through your system it blocks a hormone secretion in your bladder which prevents you peeing when your bladder starts to fill with urine. So drinking beer in turn makes you fill up faster mate.

You better go to a Urologist , it's not normal for a body to leak fluids.

You have a weak bladder and probably have only been drinking for less than a year. Keep practicing. Good times!!!
