Is it ok to have a beer every now and then while trying to build muscles?

Question

I have recently(about two weeks ago) started exercising(running, lifting weights, crunches, etc.) in order to get in shape. I'm not trying to lose weight or anything(except body fat). but I am trying to gain muscles. I drink protein shakes as well. I just want to make sure that one or 2-3 beers a week isn't hurting anything. I'm not an alcoholic. Thank you!

Answer 1

No. Your liver will have to work harder both for your muscle and the detoxification of the beer you have drunk.

Answer 2

Only if it's Bud Light.
