Aggressive drunkenness is cultural.

Drunks here get loud and maudlin, but not aggressive; nowhere near the extent of, say, British drunkards or Canadian ones, or American ones. Same in Japan, incidentally, and Korea.

Alcohol reduces your inhibitions. What's being inhibited is purely on the person being exposed and the culture they're from.
