New poster displays all the health benefits of beer

I’ve mentioned before that studies show that drinking beer can be good for you. I left clear instructions that you carry those findings around with you at all times in case you run into a girlfriend or mom nagging you to stop drinking every day. Now things got even more simple thanks to Belancio creating a handy infographic of the benefits.

Yes, I am well aware that that is too small to read. The reason behind that is these will be available as for sale as posters. If they produced an image large enough to be printed, who would bother to buy one? Because I love you all so much though, I’ve taken the time to transcribe the data found on the poster at the bottom of this post. It took a fair amount of Googling to make sure I had all the science talk down, but I’d do anything for your health.
