Affected by drinking grog (a drink of rum mixed with water), making someone tipsy or dazed.
Past participle of 'grog,' which comes from 'Old Grog,' the nickname of British Admiral Edward Vernon who wore a grogram cloak and introduced the practice of diluting rum with water for sailors in 1740.
The Royal Navy created this drink to reduce drunkenness among sailors while still giving them their daily rum ration—it was actually a clever public health measure disguised as a drink!
