As with everything else in our lives the most important thing is to find a balance. You know how they say, every poison in small doses is a medicine and every medicine in large doses is a poison. Some people even recommend drinking a glass of wine after the lunch.
At my previous job I was working night shifts (midnight to 8 am), and my problem was that my soul was sleeping at around 4-5 am but after 6-7 there would be sunrise and I was sharp awake and I couldn't sleep. So I find out that if I drink one beer after the shift I would sleep like a baby
It is self-deception. If you have insomnia then this is most likely due to the fact that you had some thoughts which did not allow you to disable the brain activity. Alcohol just relaxed. Gradually the dose will need to increase and this can lead to alcoholism.At my previous job I was working night shifts (midnight to 8 am), and my problem was that my soul was sleeping at around 4-5 am but after 6-7 there would be sunrise and I was sharp awake and I couldn't sleep.

I worked 4 years that job and I never had to increase the dose to achieve the same effect. In general I never had insomnia and that was not case here. It was only due to fact that because of the sunrise my body thought it was time to wake up and not to go to sleep. But yes, that one beer relaxed my mind and was able to easily fall asleep. BTW I managed to achieve almost the same effect with a large cup of warm chocolate milk, but I just prefer the beer
