It depends on the degree of liver damage from the HBV and, to a major degree, on how you ended up with it to begin with. Since Hep B is transmitted through body fluids, you did not get it casually. You either had unprotected sex, or you were using intravenous drugs. You can't catch it from toilet seats or kissing.
So, the question is, are you in recovery from any addictions you might have, and -- in a related sense -- did you pick up the virus while you were drunk or high? If either is the case, then you run the risk of triggering your addiction and/or doing something stupid while you are under the influence. Either of those courses of action would be likely to lead you down the road to further liver damage.
Hep B is no joke, and we see no reason to sugar coat life and death matters. Frankly, in your situation we wouldn't touch another drink. Ever.
