Note that it's called "beer belly" and not "alcohol belly". Beer has a not insignificant number of calories even if you don't factor in potential overeating from intoxication. If by "secondarily" you mean overeating while intoxicated I guess you could also factor in organ damage from drunk driving accidents or fights.

Not just overeating. If the body performs to use the alcohol as energy as claimed, then the normal amount of calories that you already ate would be stored instead of used. Alcohol and it's metabolites can directly cause organ damage.
