Hello,
You can drink a beer time after time, but I would not recommend excessive drinking as it may be toxic for your brain and lead to chronic arterial hypertension and chronic changes to the blood vessels, increasing your cardiovascular risk.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
