Intoxicated sperm?: Alcohol in large quantities increases the desire, but impairs the performance. Impotence is quite common in alcoholics, but if "the cannon goes off" then the sperm still can reach nirvana. The greater question is does your boyfriend or you think there is a problem with his drinking, and do you want to bring a child into this relationship?
