I would imagine no problem would be present unless I was unruly, can't stand or walk straight, pissed.
Should not be a problem having a few as long as you are in control. I once stopped at BBC in St. Matthews for lunch and had one pint of their barleywine (13+% alcohol) before a 2:00 flight, plus one regular beer at the airport. I was out before wheels up. Best sleep I ever got on a plane, but I already had a hangover 90 minutes later landing in DTW.
