For years, companies have provided employees with free coffee, but more and more start ups have also started offering beer to employees as well. While the beer is partially to maintain a casual, happy environment in the office, it also can help foster creativity and improve coworker social connections. So how do beer and coffee affect your brain and which should you drink in a given situation? This info graphic by Ryoko Iwata can help explain.
Essentially, while beer can help loosen up your inhibitions and make you more creative, it can also shorten your memory and decrease your focus.
