It could be several things. Hernia, GERD, ulcer... he will need to see a doctor to get this diagnosed and treated.

Sorry, but no matter how many times you post this same post, the advice won't change. A diagnosis can only be given by a doctor. That's his next step, and only option.

Excessive salivation is a natural response to heartburn. High blood pressure is very common with heavy and frequent alcohol consumption (3+ beers per day). But you're still left with the cause of the heartburn, which as noted above, will probably require a trip to the doctor or at least consult with a pharmacist.
