Yes !!!
Only in moderation.
You may use it straight or you may dilute it with water on your next watering.
Beer kicks in the microbes in your soil and helps your plants grow.
Pour some on your compost pile if you have one and just watch it go.
I use it also to kick up my compost tea a notch!!!!

That's good to know. Should I just dump like half a can on it? I'm not dumping the whole can on there the nanner can share :P

I would add to compost and then add to plants..beer will attract slugs snails and other unwanted pests..compost first might just be the trick
