Drinking Beer does lead to excessive gas formation as also it leads to extra acid secretion of Gastric acid and can be the cause of Gastritis and GERD. You are advised to cut down on your beer intake and start taking Tab Pantoprazole or Omeprazole twice a day on empty stomach and avoid beer/ alcohol/ smoking to get rid of your problem.
