No, the virus will not return if you drink beer.
I don't know the condition of your liver but if you have cirrhosis you should *not* drink beer or any alcohol.
If your liver is okay, it won't hurt to have a beer or two.
Ask your doc, find out how healthy you are before potentially causing harm to yourself.
Good luck
