Add flavor to recipes by using beer as an ingredient in the sauce, base, or coating.
Step 3: Polish copper（清洗銅制的物品）
Polish the tarnished bottom of a pot, or any other copper object, with beer to remove stains and give a lustrous finish. Pour the beer on, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wipe it off.
Step 4: Deal with pests（殺小蟲子）
Deal with pesky snails, slugs, and bees by leaving a shallow dish filled with beer in your garden. The creatures will climb in and drown.
Step 5: Fall asleep easier（幫助睡眠）
Fall asleep easier by washing your pillowcase in beer. The hops in beer give the pillowcase a comforting nutty scent, which will help you relax and go to sleep.

Step 7: Take a beer bath（洗個啤酒澡）
Pour a few cans of beer into your next bath. The vitamins and yeast are very good for the skin. Take a quick shower after!
