Eating a lot of high oxalate foods can potentially do it as well

Yep…my Dr said my kidney stones were comprised primarily of calcium oxalates. The main culprit for me was drinking too much iced tea.

Beer was water in it, amirite??

Had similar experience. Don’t want no more.

There's more value to drinking beer in relation to this subject than you might think.

Yep. My urologist told me to drink a beer or two every now and then to help with the kidney stones.

I told the dr “you put me under to install it, next time you’ll put me under to get it out” ….
I felt like I got disemboweled

Kidney stones can occur at any age. Most occur between ages of 40-60. I had my 1st and so far only attack at 75. The risk of developing them reportly increases with age. Also, folks who developed one stone have a good likelihood of developing more kidney stones in their future. I have check ups and testing every 6 months with my urologist.

I have heard of doctors prescribing like a single beer per day. Specifically unpasteurized beer for maximum benefit. More for overall renal health than stones specifically but of course the healthier the system the fewer the stones.
