You should wait a week for anything carbonated. As far as the alcohol, not if you are taking any prescription pain medication.
It is a good idea to avoid all carbonated beverages (soda, beer, sparkling water, etc.) for at least 48 hours after a tooth extraction.

Yes.
You may have ONE beer. Brush your teeth afterwards. Blood alcohol levels may increase more if you are on medications, so do not drive or operate heavy equipment /knives.
No, it is ideal to wait until you are fully healed before drinking alcohol.
Don't drink alcohol.
