There was a roumer that a plant called "the saloon plant" that was reportedly watered with beer (it was grown indoors so it didn't have any light) and it never seemed to die. But I wouldn't try that with other plants.

Plants cannot survive on beer alone as a replacement for water. Beer contains alcohol and other compounds that can harm plant growth and development. Water is essential for plants as it helps transport nutrients and allows photosynthesis to occur.

The alcohol would be wasted on the plants but the plants would use the sugars. However the small amounts of flat beer in a can is a good way to kill slugs around your hosta.

How does root beer help plants grow?

Answer The plants use the SUGAR in the Rootbeer, and any other soft drink, but the sugar can also promote bacterial/fungal growth, so stick with a proper commercial fertilizer like Miracle Gro. Water makes plants grow - plants drink in the water through their roots, and use the water to make glucose. Then they eat the glucose and they grow. Plants do NOT use sugar is soft drinks, rootbeer or otherwise, they make their own sugar.
