I enjoy a pint of beer occasionally with food, do the minerals like potassium and magnesium from the beer get absorbed and helpful like from solid foods?

Yes, minerals like potassium and magnesium from beer are expected to be absorbed ,,like in other foods. However, beer should not be one's main source of these nutrients. A well balanced diet accompanied with exercise and healthy lifestyle choices are necessary also.

Contents of beer get absorbed just like the one's from food. Enjoy beer- in moderation!

Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it. It will destroy your brain cells, damage testicular cells that make testosterone, facilitate development of cancer in many organs, cause hepatitis, cirrhosis and pancreatitis etc. There is no safe level of alcohol intake. Quit while you are ahead.
