I don't think it has any direct effect (eating muscle tissue, etc..) but the related effects definately aren't good.

1) Hops in beer raises estrogen levels
2) Most people don't eat for 4-6 hours while drinking... bad for muscle metabolism
3) Most people feel like $hit the next day and don't want to eat or train properly... kind of puts a dent in your diet/lifting schedule.
4) Save all that money and buy FOOD instead

costly
empty calories
high GI
dehydrates
and you end up in a cheap motel with a dog by your side when you wake up

thats enough for me, but in moderation it can be included into your 'diet' but i do stress the word moderation
