Does Alcohol improve digestion?

[Radziu]

Can a pint of beer or glass of wine improve digestion after a large meal or is it just conventional wisdom?

[Robert Santana]

Have you ever had a beer after a meal? Hell even before or during. Does that seem like a good digestive?

Grappa is pretty damned good though. Probably placebo but I like it anyways.

Music is good for the digestion, according to Tuco in The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.

Most aperitifs are bitter, while digestifs are herbal. See Campari and any amaro. There must be some trigger mechanism involved with each. The alcohol is just the vehicle.

Amaro Nonino is delicious. No idea if it helps with digestion.

Montenegro is another good one.
