If the only liquid you drank was beer would you dehydrate eventually?

Really? Even though you're drinking lots of liquid?

Some liquids dehydrate you. Because of their ingredients.

QUOTE
What causes hangovers?

- Drinking alcohol. But you probably knew that.

- Dehydration. Alcohol is a diuretic; it makes you urinate and flushes fluids from the body. Drinking coffee only makes matters worse, because coffee also is a diuretic. The dehydration caused by alcohol and coffee can be minimized by drinking plenty of water. A headache is a symptom of dehydration and may be eased with pain relievers and water.

- Some alcohol is worse than others. Brandy, red wine, rum, whisky, beer, white wine, gin and vodka are worst to least in descending order of likelihood to cause a hangover. The British Medical Journal did tests that showed drinking bourbon is twice as likely to cause a hangover than the same amount of vodka.

If someone drank a few bottles of beer a day (instead of any other liquids) they wouldnt get drunk or have a hangover. Would they dehydrate? How long would it take?

If they're also eating food, under normal conditions they probably would not dehydrate ever. That's why it's a total myth that we need to drink 8 glasses of water a day -- most people get enough water from food.

Historically, water hasn't been too safe and was not the beverage of choice.

Do doctors agree with this statement?

Correct.

Obviously the amount you need to drink is based on how much fluid you're losing. If you're active, you need to replace more. If you're sedentary, you need to replace less.

Water-borne. Back then the big bad was cholera.

Personally I usually need more than 8 cups a day.

According to most nutritionists, adults should aim for 9 cups of fluid a day- that includes things such as soup and coffee besides for water and other drinks.
