Not from alcohol alone. Not unless I made a conscious effort to allow myself to be effected. But other substances that have little no effect on humans can intoxicate a Gallifreyan. For all the superficial similarities, our physiologies are quite different.

Zingerone, shogaols, and gingerols, for example, are inebriating for us. Some things that are deadly poison to humans are nothing to Gallifreyans, while other substances that humans ingest without a second thought are fatal toxins to my kind.
