I have a great boyfriend whom I am deeply in love with, we have been together now for over a year and up until now, I have had not a single complaint.
Saturday we attended a BBQ with all of his friends and he got drunk, I'm not saying there is anything wrong with letting loose once in a while, but he was BOMBED. Many of his friends were busting him the next day etc.....saying things such as "of course you were drunk", "drunk again", etc.....comments that made me wonder how often this happens.
He had never been that drunk in my company before. And we do have a glass of wine/beer with dinner etc. This all made me see things in a different light, made me wonder if perhaps my perfect guy has a drinking problem.

I wouldn't take one incident as a drinking problem. If he doesn't do that when you are together, then it probably was an isolated event.
Could it be possible that his friends were giving him a hard time because he doesn't do that? Or perhaps because he used to get drunk and doesn't do it much anymore.
A year is a long time to hide a drinking problem.

Why not ask him? I mean, don't ask him if he has a drinking problem - ask him why his friends were busting on him like that. If you're deeply in love with him and have been with him a year, you'll know it if his answer is b.s.
If the relationship is everything it seems to be, the only way to address your concerns is one-on-one with him. Any opinions we have to offer are likely to be pretty useless.
