You won't find the rules in the core books, but I'm sure the House Rules forum has addressed the issue...

Depending on the gaming group, you could just have a character who drinks have the player drink too... that can have unintended consequences, however. I did game with a guy once who could down so many damn beers and as he did so, he just got better and better at roleplaying. (In general, not just roleplaying a drunk). For me, I'd probably just fall asleep.
Isn't there something on Drunken Master?

You could try this, but it might be more complex than you want and needs to be converted from 2e:

You Bet Drunkenness Rules!!!
Oh that was a question and not a statement. oops! Treating it like a poison might work. Would explain dwarves need large quantities of ale. Make the DC based on the proof and quantity drank, 1 beer is DC 10, double shot of tequila could be a 15 or so, Jagermeister a 13, except for me then it is a 8
. I am not good at assigning DCs so you might want to take more time on it. Make the effects cumulative like each drink adds +1 to the next DC, or +2 if you failed the previous the save. As for the poison dmg, primary could be -1d2 Wisdom, secondary -1d4 Dex or something. I'll do some research tonight with some Guiness and/or Jagermeister and get back to you with better DCs and dmg numbers.
As for the having the player drink, good idea in theory, but alas we have a no drinking rule in my group. It is annoying too, cause the on person who refuses to drink in real life insists on playing his dwarf as an alcoholic.
