drunken
Three sheets windward
Drunken describes the state of intoxication or things associated with it: a drunken sailor, drunken revelry, a drunken stupor.
The word functions only as an adjective before a noun—you say someone is drunk, not drunken, but a drunken brawl or drunken driving.
Drunken often carries connotations of disorder or excess.
