Hakim al-Tirmidhi in Nawaadir al-Usul FI Ahaadis al-Rasool in vol. 1, p. 109 narrates that,
...شرب ابو بكر رض الخمر كان ينوح علي قتلي بدر من المشركين و ينشد ابياتا فبلغ رسول الله ذالك
Abu Bakr (l.a.) was drunk badly and was reciting some verses crying over the polytheists who had died in the Battle of Badr.
When the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) heard, he came and saw Abu Bakr (l.a.) in this condition and was about to beat him with what he (s.a.w.a.) had in his hand.
When Abu Bakr (l.a.) saw him and said, I seek refuge from Allah from the anger of His Prophet (s.a.w.a.).
On hearing this, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) turned away from him.
Firstly, a believer will NEVER drink. Secondly, while he was drunk he expressed what was in his heart.
