In my experience, Having 2-3 beers during the come up is pretty fun but it generally makes the tripping much more confusing. In the 2 times that I have gotten smashed and then tripped, the first time, I ate 3g and fell asleep shortly after. I had the CRAZIEST dreams full of demons and the like. When I woke up, my pupils were still huge! It took me about 30 mins to put it all together. The second time, I got home from the bar to my friends shrooming. They asked me to join and lacking any inhibition, I figured, why the hell not! He hands me the bag and I just start grabbing handfulls and shoving them in my mouth and chewing them down. Then I got the wonderful idea to go grab some fresh ones. I grab handfulls and bring them up for everyone to eat. We set out for a walk in the snow and that was the last I remember of the trip. I regained conciousness and memory when I returned to the house 3 hours later and the visuals were quite intense . I find that drinking a few beers is great, but getting smashed is never a good idea although it has never caused a "Bad trip" for me.
Now what has caused a number of bad trips for me is eating a large quantity of mushrooms (5+) and then smoking a few joints or bowls of some potent bud. Visually, I found it amazing, but it spiraled my brain out of control. Everything turned into a scene for a scary movie and I got stuck in a number of thought loops and by the 2 hour mark had completely forgot that I had taken mushrooms. Interesting stuff.
But yea, I say go ahead with the beer, but don't smoke any nugs.

Well in my experences mixing alcohol dosn't fight negagive feelings or anything that you learn while on a journey. It just makes you more relaxed. I have had the most beautiful and inlightening journeys all while drinking beers and shrooming. Its all about what you go into your trip looking for. The mushrooms will do thier thing no matter what. Beer just helps you feel more relaxed and willing to acept what is coming. IMO
But you are correct, everyone is different and have thier own opinions. Mine is beer and mushrooms = 
If youre a beer lover its for you. If you don't generally like beer or alcohol then it probably isn't.

Really, now, try drinking better beer!!!! had to say it... ;p just a joke, but I despise budweiser. If you really want to drink and enjoy some booze, try a nice light white wine or some GOOD beer. Liezasjk, Guiness, Fat tire... you know... GOOD beer!

NO NO trust me I don't think budwiser by any means is a great beer lol. I'm a beer lover and normally I only drink imports. For some reason though I don't really enjoy imports while tripping. Budwiser has a very different taste.. well to me atleast when I am tripping. Its the only time I drink it, or if i'm broke ofcourse. That also is a reason we enjoy it while tripping. Its cheap and you get a large quanity to last throught the night and the trip. Normally I drink Guiness, Red Stripe, New Castle, Molson, ext.
I'm also a wine lover, but have yet to try wine while on mushrooms.. hmm thanks for that idea. I think I will get me a nice shiraz or bordeaux next time. Hmm or I bet a Pinot Grigio would taste amamzing

Has anyone else ever tried Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat beer? I love it and bet it would be utterly amazing while tripping to the sunset! (Which is a very fun thing indeed!)

Agreed, I thing the beer helps with that intial edgy feeling. I will have a couple next time shroom.
- When I took for first psychedelic, LSD, almost 20 years ago, my guide advised me to drink as much beer as possible - and we did. The beer didn't seem to have much effect, but I think it made for a sloppy trip. But that was before the Internet, now we have tons of information.

In my experience, when I take a large dose and start getting scared, or start thinking nasty thoughts, the first thing I do is grab the bottle of booze under the bed. Usually, it doesnt help at all, I find that the anxiety is pretty much non existent when you drink during the come up of the trip. But if trying to use alcohol as a solution to problems during trips has brought me nothing more but a mental ass kicking. Stick with benzos during emergencies.

You should keep in mind the mixing chemicals can be dangerous, and we all know that alcohol is not the safest of drugs in this sense. I'd say drinking a beer or two is alright from experience, might take the edge off, but getting drunk is a bad idea, especially after the trip starts. Sorry to reign on anyone's parade, you're probably alcoholics and would drink beer with your Cheerios 
You know, there are other ways to get the edge off, such as meditation or breathin exercises. It takes practice but is certainly more healthy than numbing yourself with alcohol.

one time when on acid i was guzzling vodka and it did nothing to me. Don't know about shrooms. I do know that if you are a beer lover like me, it tastes great with shrooms though. Blue Moon, Killians Red, Model Espacial, Delerium Tremens, Heineken, La fin du monde, Hoegaarden, rouge dead guy ale, New Glarus Brewery beer are all excellent choices.

i am glad that i found this thread ive only done shrooms 4 times and the first time i drank three or four coors light and the trip was way more funny and i had a good time now ive been growing mushrooms for a couple of months and i have quite a bit of them i tripped 3 times on them they are b+ i drank a tea, ate them wet, ate them dry i had a horrable trip every time i have anxiety issues and bipolar issues those trips were way too intense psychologically i coudnt hack it so the moral of this is BEER DOES HELP WITH ANXIETY and besides i had way better visuals like my beer can stretched like 3 feet i dunno but the next time i will drink a few beers for a test!!!

yea, a couple beers usually makes me a little less on edge while tripping - I just make sure I have a water bottle with me because I tend to get dehydrated while tripping, and beer doesn't help.
