Buried in the page though is this:"Cattle and sheep can consume unprocessed whole sugar beets."
It then goes on to explain who you may want to chop them up a bit to stop the animals choking.
I'm willing to believe that apples which have started to ferment may continue to do so whilst in a ruminant's stomach and, so, make them drunk.
Ruminants use bacteria in their stomachs to, for example, help break down cellulose into simpler sugars -- they don't make beer. This does not produce alcohol and bacteria which break down cellulose would not ferment sugar into alcohol.
[I only really googled this since the OP insists that nothing found on google disproves the theory. Simple common sense tells us this is extremely unlikely.]
