Beer refreshes the mind and body, makes people more sociable, and helps people shed their inhibitions and approach the opposite sex without the fear of getting rejected or laughed at.

So, when the great comic Jerry Seinfeld said that 90% of people are able to date only because of alcohol, he probably actually meant a ‘few pitchers of American lager’.

The best thing about beer is that it is as useful for non-drinkers as it is for drinkers. It can be used for a number of purposes – right from cooking to cleaning.

Below are ten reasons why you should have beer in your home – even if you do not drink.

Use beer as a marinade
You can use beer to marinate meat and mushrooms, to boil shrimp, and to bake bread. It can also be used in a batter for a delicious fish and chips meal or seafood platter.

Beer as a hair masque
You can apply flat beer to your hair, leave it for a few minutes, and rinse thoroughly. The natural sugars and vitamin B present in beer make your hair stronger and softer, and give it a healthy glow.

Add beer to your bath for a natural exfoliant
You can add a couple of kegs of beer to your bath and soak your body in the all-natural goodness for a while. The beer bubbles will gently exfoliate and cleanse your skin and leave it looking refreshed.

Now, some of you might shudder at the thought of your favourite beverage doing down the drain, but it is totally worth it.

Beer is a natural slug repellant
Looking for a less sinister way to kill those slugs and snails that wreak havoc in your garden? Here is an idea. Bury a wide-mouthed bottle or container in your garden. Make sure its top is slightly higher than the ground level. Pour some leftover beer in it and leave it alone.

Slugs and snails, just like humans, have a thing for the golden liquid. So, they will get in to the container for a quiet drink, drown in it, and die peacefully.

Use beer to clean stains
You can use beer to clean stubborn stains on your carpet and upholstery.

Clean your jewellery with beer (Jev and Timo)
Beer can be used as a cheaper, more effective replacement for cleaning solutions. You can soak your pieces of jewellery in beer, wipe them clean with a cloth, and polish them lightly using a dry cloth. You can also polish metal containers the same way.

Use beer on wooden furniture
You can dampen a piece of cloth with flat beer and use it to clean your wooden furniture.

Beer can prevent kidney stones (Trevor)
People who have had kidney stones swear that they are tear-your-hair-out painful. If you want to prevent kidney stones or flush out a few, you can drink beer. It is a diuretic that helps you pass lots of urine, which is your best bet to pass kidney stones easily.

Use beer to repel bees and flies
Planning to host a party or a backyard barbecue and worried that bees and flies might show up as uninvited guests and spoil your party? Keep a few containers of beer at the yard. Flies and bees will be attracted to it and stay away from your party.

A natural fertiliser
Now, for that existential question that confronts all of mankind today – what to do with leftover beer? The answer is simple. Sprinkle it on your houseplants, garden vegetables, and grass. It will help your plants and grass absorb the nutrients they need to grow.
