glucose is excreted in urine in Diabetes when the blood sugar level is beyond normal and insulin is not enough or not doing the job of transporting sugar to its target organ.
The main reason is that because the kidneys cannot absorb all of the excess glucose in the body. This excess glucose spills into the urine, accompanied by water and electrolytes ions necessary for the cells to regulate the electric charge and flow of water molecules across the cell membrane. Hence this causes frequent urination to get rid of the additional water drawn into the urine and excessive thirst to trigger replacement of lost water.

In most people, alcohol is not produced in the body and is therefore not spontaneously excreted without ingestion.
