But getting back to the drinking situation, I believe that Elves and Dwarves can hold there own when it comes to their own drinks of culture. Having said this since wine is known to be stronger then ale Legolas could have very well bested Gimli at an ale drinking game, only because he would be more accustomed to drinking a stronger more effective beverage.
Ahh, but to reference some quotes from further up in this topic, Elves drink bowls of wine at their feasts, while dwarves are drinking barrels of ale for breakfast. I think in that case the alcohol tolerance should favor the dwarves.

Plus considering Dwarf culture, they are probably trying to brew their ale to be potent.
