My father is a functional alcoholic who sips at beers all day long, rarely gets more than buzzed. My mother is a rager who, once started, will not stop until she's passed out. They eventually split for several reasons, but she stayed sober for many years in spite of his having a kegerator in the basement. He didn't get why this is an issue. I'm not interested in vilifying your husband, and I don't know whether or not he has a problem, but he does deserve to get why him drinking your temptation is an issue. He could very well be the devil, for what I know, but you need to know that having a problem with him placing you in temptation's reach is not something that you're being silly or petty about. Hopefully he just doesn't get it and isn't a huge jerk, but he needs to learn that your temptation being waved in front of you is akin to you being invited to sacrificing everything . . . not for him, not for fun, but for self-destruction.
