So I've heard from several people that if you drink draft beer, you are likely to get a hangover, whereas if you drink cans or bottles, you are much less likely to get a hangover.

I'm curious if anyone else believes this or has heard it too.

Darker beers tend to give me more of a hangover, but they are so tasty it's worth it.

I don't know about beer, but mixing tequila, rum, vodka and wine, yeah that's a bad idea.

Never happened to me. When I go out I normally exclusively drink draft and it's nothing worse than when I hang out and drink cans/bottles.

Yeah, I've had the same results. I seem to always get a hangover from beer whether I drink draft (my favorite), bottles, or cans. When I drink liquor though, I don't usually get a hangover.

I try to stay away from draft beer, you never know when they cleaned the beer lines last!

As opposed to the dozen or so pints that are taxing your liver ;)

Ignorance is bliss. I don't want to hear about it.

if the owner and workers drink there..i'll drink it.

Not gonna kill ya.


I think its a myth but I wouldnt care anyone..draft beer is tasty.

Maybe there is a higher amount of C02 which could cause the hangover amplification? Dunno i am not a scientist.
