Not generally: But heavy drinking, espeically large amounts of beer, result in obesity, and obesity results in diabetes, and diabetes does result in thrust. Your level of drinking is clearly dangerous to your health, and clearly you are already concerned. I would be equally concerned with the other health problems associated with drinking, and get help in stopping your alcohol use, as well as losing weight.

Thrush: Thrush usually comes on after antibiotic usage. It can also be seen in high-carbohydrate diets, but i can't say that beer drinking causes thrush. If it did, i would expect college towns to be infested with thrush.
