No, quite the oppisite. It thins it. I've witnessed people get punched in the nose while drunk and it poured for ever. It takes a while for the plateletts to clot. Further example is my tatoo artist. He will refuse to ink you while you are drunk because of the blood loss.

Does alcohol thicken or thin the blood?

All types. The higher alcohol content the thinner your blood will get. This is because when you drink alcohol, the moment it hits your blood stream it turns into sugar which will thin your blood. When your blood is thinned beyond a certain point it can become hard to keep your self upright, make good decisions, use common sense, or process thoughts. This is the effect of "being drunk" or "drunkness". That is why the higher alcohol content the faster you can get "drunk" That is why it can be fatal to drink beyond a certain point (the thinner your blood is the harder the heart works to pump the blood and the less oxygen that gets to your brain. A combination of these factors can lead to stroke, brain failure, or heart attack when "drunk") That is how you get drunk
