Alcohol: Jaw aching is a result of referred pain and after alcohol consumption could be a sign of reflux Refraining from alcohol might be the easiest solution

Hard to say: what this is. Could be result of acid reflux or of jaw clenching/biting following drinking. How much alcohol did you consume? If it has only happened after drinking, then the obvious answer is to cut down or stop drinking. If it persists, see you doctor.
