The Giant Gallifrey Archive Made By People Even More Obsessed than me, which is here:
http://meshyfish.com/~roo/docwho1.html

says this: "Time Lords metabolize alcohol very quickly so it is almost impossible for them to become drunk. Some Time Lords have very fine control over the rate at which they metabolize alcohol and special meditations allow a Time Lord to regulate their metabolism making inebriation possible."

But it's in orange, and that means book, rather than TV canon.

Oddly enough, the only thing in red (TV canon) that he drinks is tea. They missed the banana daquiri. *g* But--he was faking drunk in that scene to get close enough to pour the anti-oil on the robots, so...I dunno.

I've seen people take the route that Time Lords can get drunk if they WANT to.

He was faking drunk in that scene, though!
