Well, I thought it was interesting that his father had a drinking problem and David goes to drinking in times of stress. Not what I would do, but hey.

He was drinking after Snow's dream. He went out to drink after a bad dream about Emma. He had a drink ready with him when hunting for a unicorn. That's all I can think of, but prior to this season he pretty much didn't drink. He usually resorts to making idiotic decisions but even when Emma and Snow were lost to him, he just kept hope and now he drinks to, I guess, soothe his nightmares.
