I have heard the best way to avoid a hangover is to not drink. Seems pretty suspicious to me though...
I'd suggest you experiment with aspirin/ibuprofen, water, and electrolytes to see which combination works best for you. I've found that I can tie on one and as long as I force myself to drink 2 pints of water before bed I'm at least 90% when I wake up because my hangovers are largely dehydration. ymmv
THIS! Keep Gatorade or Pedialyte on hand at all times! Right before you hit the pillow drink a pint or 2 of either. You will be AMAZED at the difference you feel when you wake up. Just that alone changed my life! Now add V B12, D and C to the mix! HOLY CRAP rarely will I EVER feel less than 99% when I wake up after any drinking at all.
Good luck!
Cheers

Are you drinking homebrewed beer or commercial or both? Sometimes if homebrew is fermented too hot it can have a lot of fusel alcohols which will make you hungover easier
Follow the advice given above
1. Drink water and space out your drinking
2. Eat plenty of healthy food
3. Gatorade/Pedialyte before bed
4. B Vitamins before bed. I use the MEGAMAN series from GNC
5. Ny-Quil before bed.
The B-vitamins replenish what was stripped out of your body. And the Ny-quil allows you to sleep after the depressive effects of the alcohol wear off and your body wants to wake-up (the reason you're usually tired after a night of a bit too much alcohol).
This is NOT a healthy thing to do. But it works and gets me to 80-85% on days when I'd normally be operating at <50%.

Stay fit.
I haven't actually tested the theory, but I'm sure as my fitness deteriorates my hangovers are gettign worse
stop drinking 1-2 hours before bed
In college I rarely got hangovers and when I did I always thought it was sort of hilarious and I'd just embrace it. Fast forward ten years and it's not nearly as comical.
I knew a doctor that would hook up a some sort of IV drip.
Dude was a nut.
