Have any of you ever 'gone off' beer? Even temporarily?
I'm going through this right now. I just don't fancy it.
Will I recover?

I've been through those phases temporarily. I see it as a sign to brew something I've never brewed before. Usually does the trick for me.
Brew a boddingtons clone (can) ,drink it luke warm. You'll soon be back on track.

Can't imagine going off beer or curry.
Is it all beer or just particular types? I feel for you!

Is it just beer or have you gone off drinking alcoholic drinks?
Man up man ffs!
I'm offended!
I've got palpitations thinking about going off beer, just knock a brew up off the top of your head that should do it
Over the years, I have been known to 'indulge' in dry january - usually for my own sanity and to redress the balance after a typically brew fuelled december. One year in particular, come the 1st February, I cracked open a cold beer, poured it out, put my feet up, took a big old mouthful and nearly cried. My tastebuds screamed at me "This isn't very nice!". Fortunately, I decided to ignore my taste buds and plowed on through that one, and a couple more. By the end of the third, I had got my taste back online and drank happily ever after. Scary times.
Just for the record,beer don't affect antibiotics....
It does effect some -

When to avoid drinking alcohol completely
Completely avoid drinking alcohol when taking:
- metronidazole – an antibiotic sometimes used to clear dental or vaginal infections, or to clear infected leg ulcers or pressure sores
- tinidazole – an antibiotic sometimes used to treat many of the same infections as metronidazole, as well as to help clear bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) from the gut
- feeling or being sick
- tummy pain
- hot flushes
- a fast or irregular heartbeat
- headaches
- dizziness
- drowziness
Things like mouthwash and other medicines sometimes contain alcohol, so you should also avoid using these while you're taking metronidazole or tinidazole.
Other antibiotics that can interact with alcohol
There are some antibiotics that can sometimes interact with alcohol, so you should be wary of drinking alcohol if you're taking:
- linezolid – linezolid can interact with undistilled (fermented) alcoholic drinks, such as wine, beer, sherry and lager
- doxycycline – this is known to interact with alcohol, and the effectiveness of doxycycline may be reduced in people with a history of chronic alcohol consumption; it should not be taken by people with liver problems

Such remote parts of the body. How does the infection get from the one to the other? :tinhat:
First time I've ever heard it called that!
... whatever they were I was taking 3000mg a day for three months.
My knee had a puss filled lump on it the size of a grapefruit,centering around a point where I had a stainless bolt through it years earlier.

Indeed, I can say with both personal and professional experience that you don't want to mix Metronidazole and Alcohol.
Good to know....
