For quenching my thirst on a hot day nothing beats a coke with ice in a glass. Can't beat the classics.

Weird... beer never quenches my thirst. Water, Gatorade or iced tea work for me. Beer is something I enjoy, but not what I turn to when I'm thirsty.

Coke's net effect on the body is dehydration as well.

Same.

when i'm thirsty i want ice water.

but for enjoyment? a good beer is great. on a hot summer day sitting outside in the shade with a cold beer makes paying a mortgage ok.

Yeah I know, but for instant satisfaction I still like it better than water.

Nothing quenches thirst like an ice cold brew. It doesn't fullfil the desire for water. We used to finsh 18 hour days on the wheat combines with a cold becks-there was nothing better.

Have a Lindeman's Framboise lambic or a saison styled beer. Very fruit-filled(in nose & taste) & quite the ladykillers. Not to be confused with winecoolers & the like.

Beer doesn't quench my thirst, but that's probably because of the types I drink...and the fact that alcohol doesn't quench thirst it makes you thirstier. Water, gatorade, etc...those are thirst quenchers.
