It seems that every so often there is a thread on the AAS board about drinking on cycle. Somebody wants to know if they can drink, will it hurt their liver, what they should drink if anything, etc.
But what about just alcohol and building muscle in general? Here are a few links regarding alcohol intake and testosterone levels.
NEJM -- Effect of alcohol (ethanol) administration on sex-hormone metabolism in normal men
I found this one interesting because it was just about moderate drinking and over a short time period.
Study: Moderate drinking decreased test levels in men by 6%
This one is more about the metabolic process in general, but talks about lowered testosterone in the sex hormone section.
Another: Alcohol metabolism contributes to testicular injury and impairs testosterone synthesis
