Can we back to the stupid beer comments and away from the off topic quantity consumed comments?
Well apparently a case (24) of Keystone Light is equivelalent to 5 gallons of any other beer. Lol

Oh man, I get those quite often. I believe, in the translation, heavy = flavorfulI always get the "god that's heavy" comment. Whether its a Pale Ale, IPA or a brown.
"why on earth would you want your beer to be bitter?" my mom
My boss kept hounding me for a sample of my beer. I finally brought some with me to give to those who wanted a to try it. He came by a few days later and said, "yeah I tried that beer the other night...nice and wheaty."
WTF? Wheaty???? It was a traditional brown. Probably should stick with his Michelob.
A coworker asked to try a hard cider then bugged me till I finally brought her some.
I keg so I had to put it in a bottle I had laying around.
I asked her what she thought; she said,
"It wasn't very good. I thought you were going to bring me something you made, not this IPA you got at the store."

Maybe she wanted some hard dickens cider
I funniest guinness mix I ever saw was at one of the seediest dives I've ever been to and they had "Pabst smears" Guinness and PBR. right away I knew was in a classy joint.
LMAO, this place wouldnt be located in a Tower like building with a tattoo parlor upstairs? When you were in that neighborhood did you actually expect anything other than the utmost of class in a drinking establishment?
from a co-worker today, "what type of CO2 do you use?"
That's not a stupid comment. Bottle carbonated or keg carbonated? If keg carbonated, where do you get your CO2? If keg carbonated, are you carbing with nitro?
I've carbed with CO2 from a seedy paintball supply shop and CO2 from a beer supply place. The paintball gas had a funny metallic/chemical smell to it - like if you huffed your half-empty glass, you'd get a nosefull and wonder what was up. It wasn't just green beer, either, the smell was really noticeable in soda water. So I think asking someone where they get their gas is a totally legit question.

if you dont laugh.. Welll...
stout: These dark, rich beers are called such because after drinking a dozen of them you will feel stout enough to wrestle all four of the cops by yourself.
And my favorite was, a guy said, there isn't even any american beer in there.
ugh.
It gets better when you go to a bar and when you ask the bartender/waitress why you got charged full price instead of the happy hour price for Sam Adams or worse yet Holy Mackerel (it sucks) which is local Ft. Lauderdale and they tell you it's an import.
I had an interesting one recently. Not a homebrew comment but what the heck...
So at a local restaurant they serve Hennepin on tap. I order one and to my chagrin, it is terribly oxidized. Sherry, cardboard, the whole 9. Anyway, I send it back and tell the server it is oxidized and inquire about the age of the keg or perhaps something amis in the tap lines. She returns it but comes back later to tell me, the lines are cleaned regularly and that is just they way that beer tastes 'kind of skunky'. Sad face. I just said 'OK' and drank my beer with dinner. I wish they would have taken my helpful comment a bit more to heart, but I am not willing to be a dick.
Anyway, I recently had one of my friends tell me they really liked this craptastic mild on had on tap. That was probably the dumbest comment I have heard yet about my beer. It was awful.
