take this from a drinker/benzo-fan: the combination can seriously wipe out my memory in no time. much lower alcohol tolerance. i don't know if the alcohol cancels out the clonazepam, but it does *potentiate* it--meaning, it becomes too powerfully sedating (nice term: passing out).
combine the two and you are much more likely (in my experience) to fall asleep or go on a blackout drunk.
