People who "relax with a beer" in the evening - are you not getting drunk?

A lot of people say that they don’t have an alcohol problem but they do like to “relax with a beer” every evening. I just don’t understand how drinking a beer is particularly relaxing if you’re not getting at least tipsy from it? If it’s not having an alcoholic effect on you, how is it different from drinking any other beverage you find pleasant tasting? Are you not getting tipsy at all? If not, why is it so relaxing?

I like to “relax with a glass of wine” after a particularly taxing evening but I’ll freely admit that the reason it’s so relaxing is because it gets me a wee bit tipsy.
