Adives on how to have a conversation

I need to have the conversation we all have probably had over and over with my AH.
I have NO desire to be around him if he is drinking. I find that when he is drinking, I have this over whelming feeling of disgust, hate and cant stand him.
Any time we have any conversation about drinking, he always gets defensive, its the same conversation over and over and Im so over having the conversations. I typically ignorwe the drunk him the best I can, but am finding that I am starting to have anxiety attacks while trying to ignore him. So I go inside and remove myself from the situation. TEMPORARILY, or until the next time.
I married him as a drinker, which is what he says and that's a fair statement, but I want nothing to do with him when he's drinking. He will aslo say, what it's ok for you to have a beer, but not me? I have one beer, he has an 18 pack. Anyways, any adice on how to have this conversation in a constructive way would be helpful!!
