Answer
Hi Ozzy,
Excessive alcohol use is a definite risk factor for gout, especially beer. In fact, excessive alcohol use has many potential bad effects on the liver, heart, nerves, and other organs. Best to try to get your intake down or eliminated completely to protect your health !! Good luck !!
