Coumadin is a blood thinner and I'm taking it for one month.

you are asking for medical advice from strangers, doctors are realistic enough to answer this:-(
alcohol enhances the anticlotting effect and could lead to bleeding issues (ulcers, death, etc)
if beer is so important in your life that you would risk a likely ulcer then go for it ( or find a rehab)

beer and coumadin is a bad mixture. both causes blood thinning. this can lead to internal hemorrhaging then hypovolemia (extremely low blood volume, happens when the blood doesn't clot) then shock and eventually DEATH. so if you have some sort of death wish, please be my guest...
good luck!
ps. didn't the doctor who prescribed coumadin to you tell you what and what not to do when you're taking coumadin?

No you can not.Coumadin is a blood thinner,and Alcohol also thins your blood.So taking both is not a good idea.
