Hi,
Welcome To HCM & Thanks For Asking Your Query Here

Alcohol may irritate the mouth and cause tongue inflammation and soreness ,it may also be related to burning mouth syndrome , Also if you have a small laceration or ulcer on your tongue, initial contact with an irritant like alcohol could sharply increase your perception of pain

not specific to you but after several alcoholic beverages, awareness of pain could diminish and one can bite his tongue accidentally which cause injury and it feel it when person comes in normal stat
one more reason can be dehydration causing by alcohol so Make sure to drink lots of water

finally i would strongly suggest you to see a dr to further evaluate the problem

I hope it help
Thanks & Get well Soon
