Any success with drinking beer to increase milk supply?

[CountryMama14]

I want to increase my milk supply to start a freezer stash for when I go back to work. Has anyone tried having a beer to increase their milk supply? Did it work out for you?

My childbirth instructor said it will work occasionally for only a short time, but i haven't tried it. Have you tried any supplements?

I haven't used beer per se but I have tried 'Brewers Yeast' supplements. That yeast is typically used in the beer making process and found in beer itself. I actually ground up the supplements and used them to make "lactation cookies". I noticed a small increase in supply. I've been having a hard time building my milk supply though so my results may not be the best thing to judge against.

I tried everything but just way too much trouble. So I just put baby at the boob (she`s a total boob sucker anyway) and it works just fine. Takes time though, and I don`t have crazy amount of frozen breastmilk, but still enough to go out sometimes.
