Nuns historically drank beer rather than water primarily due to concerns about water quality and safety. During the Middle Ages, water sources were often contaminated, leading to waterborne diseases. Beer, being brewed and containing alcohol, was safer to consume and provided some nutritional benefits. Additionally, brewing beer was a common practice in monasteries, allowing nuns to produce their own safe beverages.
