Alcohol is quite volatile, and will evaporate very easily -- far moreso than water. So if the alcohol packing is in any way compromised, even microscopically, you'll find dry pads in the pack. And this is a frequent occurrance.

However, maintained in sealed stated, I don't see a way that alcohol can decompose -- so no.
