I don't think alcohol is quite that severe. I wouldn't recommend it as treatment for AF because it is a diuretic, but so is coffee, so is tea, so is rosemary. I get more dehydrated from a cup of coffee than a pint of beer. And sometimes it is so nice to come home to a nice cool beer after a day of arse pain.
