Drunken Brawler feat

I have a Drunken Master monk that I took this feat on and much like most of the things with that character this feat has some ambiguity to it that has lead to debates about how it functions. The feat states that when you drink alcohol you gain temp HP, a bonus to fort and will, and a penalty to dex. The bonuses last for 1 hour or until the temp HP runs out however the penalty remains for the full hour. We've already determined that the bonuses and penalties won't stack with each other, however the question that remains is whether I have to wait the full hour to reactivate the feat or if it can be refreshed as soon as the temp HP runs out. Also because my character build can cast restoration effectively at will for no cost can I just remove the penalty using that ability.

You can reactivate the feat immediately by taking another drink. The bonuses would return, and while you'd gain the penalty again for another hour, the new penalty wouldn't stack with the former penalty since you can't suffer the same penalty from the same ability more than once at a time. (See the evil eye FAQ for an example of this principle.)
