What's really going on
The scene is a reunion that turns into a quiet test of two old friends' different ideas of a good life. Sully has done the work: he moved away, stopped drinking, and built a life he can be proud of, and Healy's praise — "it looks like you really cleaned up your act" — is genuine. But Healy cannot quite let the old version go. He keeps offering a drink, half teasing, half hoping, and Sully has to explain why one beer is dangerous for him. Their argument about moderation is also an argument about who they are now, and Sully gets the film's wisest line: "You gotta learn to have a pop once in a while or you're gonna fall off the wagon." The friend who means well is the one still living in the past.
Theme
FriendshipTwo old friends tease and test each other, and the scene shows affection that has to survive very different choices about how to live.

Man, it looks like you really cleaned up your act.Healy's honest compliment: his friend has clearly changed his life, and the sleek apartment and car are the proof.
You gotta learn to have a pop once in a while or you're gonna fall off the wagon.Sully's own philosophy of recovery: he believes total abstinence is fragile, and that occasional moderation is what keeps a person steady.
Yeah. You gotta bend a little bit, or believe me. You're gonna break.The same idea put more bluntly: a person who never relaxes will eventually snap, so Healy urges his friend to loosen up.
