In bread, dough is treated with yeast. What yeast does is that it uses sugar, and produces Carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide causes the bread to rise.

In alcohol, yeast and whatever else is placed in an anaerobic container- basically a place with no oxygen. Yeast will then undergo fermentation- where it converts the sugar into ethanol (the alcohol in drinks). Thus, yeast is what produces the alcohol in drinks.
