I think it may have something to do with bad luck.

I believe in the past people were offered a dose of alcohol after a meal before they were executed. Therefore asking someone to have a drink after dinner might be impolite.

Of course I could be wrong.

Drink beer on street?

I have not seen this at any time, any place anywhere in China.

After dinner most Chinese men play cards and drink plenty of rice wine.
