I searched leangains and I couldn't find anything about drinking directly after training. I'm sure it addresses this but I couldn't find anything. I know (moderate intake of) alcohol isn't bad for muscle growth but does this also apply to training days? If I train from 3pm-5pm will it be detrimental if I have a pint in the evening? I know this is just splitting hairs and it probably doesn't matter but I just want to be sure. Thanks.

Just keep in mind that for the time your liver oxidizes the alcohol, all other processes are given a lower priority (fat oxidation, protein synthesis, etc). Not exactly sure of the extent, as I'm sure it varies from person to person, and also depends on how much they drink.
