Common sense explanation as told to Norm by Cliff on "Cheers":
"Well you see, Norm, it's like this...A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Darn, I don't care for beer. Wonder if wine works the same way?
He also said cold beer on a cold day lowers the body temperature and brings you more into equilibrium with your environment. So Diane asked 'Then why drink cold beer on a hot day?' Cliff answered "What else are you going to do with it?"
