Beer?

I wonder if anyone can help... Is beer allowed on N Days? I mean just one (or two!) beers. And not every day. I assumed it was ok because it's not sweets, seconds or a snack, but now I'm not so sure?
Sorry if the answer's in the book but I'm still waiting for my copy to be delivered! Thanks in advance!

In terms of No-S, beer is allowed in whatever quantity you like. Glass Ceiling is a separate system to cut down your drinking, and allows two drinks per day.
No-S doesn't make reference to alcohol on the basis that there are worse health problems to worry about if your caloric intake from alcohol is high enough to affect your weight.

I'm German. I can't invent a diet that doesn't allow beer.
There's a related "everyday system" called "glass ceiling" that I (and many others on this board) use to regulate alcohol consumption. The short version is you're allowed 2 drinks a day.
The long version is here:

Thanks all! Good to know!
I don't very often drink during the week, and especially not more than 1 or 2 so hopefully I'll be ok. But if I do have a beer it has to be
after I eat or it leads to all sorts of snacking mischief (as I was reminded last night...)
Thanks again for your help!
