There have been numerous studies in the 1950's to find the cause. What they have come up with is... the exact mechanism is unknown. They feel that it may cause swelling in the diseased nodes that cause the pain. They also feel that it has something to do with histamine. Some studies have shown that if a person takes anti-histamine before the alcohol is consumed it does not create the pain. One study showed and increase in temperature of the diseased lymph node after the consumption of alcohol which may go along with the swelling theory.
