I am a zythophile and I prefer drinking beer over whisky most of the times. Its because the percentage of alcohol is low in beer as compared to whisky, suitable for me haha. Similarly, beer tastes good than whisky and comes in good price. Beer has good amount of vitamins and is said to reduce your cholesterol level. Lastly its not a thing to say but beer is like your friend to accompany during the time of sadness, happiness, depression and so on.
Note: Drinking beverages is good for your health as long as you don't cross your normal limit.
