Friend downplaying my sobriety

I have a group of friends who I feel very comfortable around when they’re drinking. I have no problems sitting around drinking my club soda while they drink. However, I have some friends who don't know that I have stopped drinking and have offered me a beer/drink. But, after I politely decline and tell them why, then another friend of my chimes in and announces that being sober is the new drug. This has happened more than once. In my head I’m like WTF? Have any of you experienced this type of behavior? It feels like he’s offended by my sobriety. Thanks for listening.
