And you don't have to be completely drunk to ease the tension, just a couple beers, that's all. It's all good though, to each his own.

But I'm assuming you've at least gotten drunk and been in a social setting before, as it would be ignorant to knock something without trying it first. I mean, come on, we ARE stoners. Most of us know a thing or two about experimentation.
The point of drinking is atleast to get a good buzz going. Otherwise there would be no point in having alcohol in the drink. Even if you don't get drunk then you'll still be wanting a slight feeling of being buzzed. Thats almost like smoking weed without the intention of being high.
