@Wingmannedbro Unfortunately my neurology is rusty, but the neurotransmitter GABA levels increasing or decreasing doesn’t take away that slight levels of alcohol increases your energy and makes you more aware as a result, so it may not be an ‘upper’ in the traditional sense, but it is an upper in the sense that it raises energy.
Just like energy drinks or high levels of sugar first make you more alert and energetic and afterwards the sugar crash begins.
But like I said, read the book. It’s likely available at every university that has psychology courses in your country (probably an updated version). It’s riddled with evidence backed studies since it not only focuses on psychology, but also neurology and physiology.

I think you mostly misunderstood what you read tho, the man is a psychologist and discusses drinking behavior and circumstantial factors. Particularly in young people this is often at parties and nights out in the weekend, and in the company of friends and/or romantic partners.
Those settings alone will trigger natural production of stimulants, such as norepinephrine which is mentioned. Yet none of those are attributed to the ethanol molecule.
Psychology is not a source on medical science.
