Snoring is the vibration of respiratory structures and the resulting sound, due to obstructed air movement during breathing while sleeping. The sound may be soft or loud and unpleasant. The structures are usually the uvula and soft palate. The irregular airflow is caused by a blockage, due to causes including:
Allergies
Throat weakness causing the throat to close during sleep
Mispositioned jaw, often caused by tension in muscles
Fat gathering in and around the throat
Obstruction in the nasal passageway
The passageway will even more closed when you consumed alcohol.

I think it's because your muscles are more relaxed when you are drunk, so while sleeping you inhale more deeply. The back of your throught and nasal passages fall close off slightly and cause that loud drunken snore!!

Because alcohol relaxes all your mussels including your tongue, allowing your tongue to fall back into your throat more than usual. The sedative effect adds to it by allowing you to sleep through your own snoring.
