No, the alcohol in beer is ethonol, the same stuff that people run their cars off of. The alcohol you put on cuts is isopropyl alcohol. This alcohol if you drink it can kill you.

No...I it's something else. I know that they use pure ethanol in beer, which is basically the pure form of alcohol...or maybe part of it? (but I don't think it's safe to drink ethanol...my biology teacher wouldn't let us when we had to do practicals with the stuff lol)...don't think it's used on cuts and grazes though.
