So i know that there is a way to buy monastary credits or something and its cheaper/easier to get alcohol that just buying directly.

This true, and if so... what exactly should i do?

(and yes, i know farming is prolly the best)

Yes I run to boss and kill him i avoid the rest Killroy gives you a skill in that dungeon that increases your speed i find it really easy to do. Just make sure you use the the first skill in the special skill bar you get for the dungeon use it as much as you can

Farm for gold and go in Temple of Balthazar and buy firewaters cheap
At least that's how I got my last 4k min or so that were needed.
Alchool is the easyest to get of all 3 (alchool/sweets/party) so I wouldn't worry too much.

you have to sit there every 3 minute, hitting the drink button a few more times for like 1000 hours

The best way to acquire alcohol is to farm Singed Gargoyle Skulls and cash them for Spiked Eggnog when Wintersday arrives (there's still enough time to stock a maxed title's worth of skulls). Old Ascalon and Diessa Lowlands sport a decent gargoyle population and any profession can farm in NM (of the ones I tried E and D were the fastest).

What I did was make new Canthan characters, doing quests that were short and gave me Monastery Credits, then I erased it before gong to Seitung Harbor (doing all the secondary quest), made another character and did the same. It can be really boring and it will take longer but it was worth the trouble.

Just look at the quest that will give you the Credits.

Decayed Orr Emblems trade for regular Eggnogs which like all level 1 drinks are vastly inferior to Spiked Eggnog. The fastest way to max Drunkard is through zoning and you'll need five regular Eggnogs per zone, but only one Spiked Eggnog. Thus, 1 Spiked Eggnog = 2 Singed Gargoyle Skulls is worth 5 Eggnogs = 15 Decayed Orr Emblems.

Even if you drink while adventuring, Spiked Eggnog is ideal since it's a 'fire and forget' solution whereas with regular drinks you'll have to keep track of your inebriation level to avoid wasting alcohol.

Awesome tip! Can't wait to try this out actually.
