One of my teammates said he thought he coded best with a slight buzz, but who knows - maybe he was just creating tech debt and vulnerabilities at scale.

For me, having one beer when coding helps because it removes my discomfort of sitting in a chair for very long. If I've been sitting for a while and coding, my mind is willing but my body is complaining about the discomfort. A bit of alcohol goes a long way to help that.
I've found that I almost can't program anything sensible after even very small amounts of alcohol, even half a beer or 25ml of vodka is enough. It's either alcohol or programming for me. I don't drink too often, but when I do, even after large amounts I don't have hangover and I remember having memory loss only once.
