Was at a local liquor store beer tasting and heard a guy talking to some of his friends suggesting beers, and he said "I like the IPAs" but pronounced it eye-puhs. He was serious.
 
Oye vey...or a gest that tastes a few different home brews of yours,then asks "you got any more of that bud lite with the lime in it?". I had to chuckle at that,since his brother gave him a brain duster after saying that. He loved my beers,as they wanted me to send them home with a mixed case of my beers for the 4th. I gave them a 12 pack. They said later their were no complaints. I guess that's a compliment?...
 
"You know, there's the places called 'stores' where you can actually buy beer that's already been made."

Stole this from someone else on the site, but next time you hear this from someone, you response should be: True, but beer is a lot like porn; sure, you can buy it off the shelf, but it's a lot more fun to make your own.
 
Co-worker hit me with this last time I went drinking with him: "why don't you drink a man's beer like Coors?" As I'm drinking a Kettlehouse Cold Smoke that he can't handle drinking because it's "too much flavor for beer".

Got a real kick out of that.
 
When some bozo asks me "do you think someday you could make a beer as good as a commercial brewery?" and means it.

No, bozo, I think I am already making beer 2x as good as most commercial breweries.

Maybe they think it's like building a car or something, you just can't do it right in your garage. Oh wait you can for the most part. Even better.

Maybe it's like making a Twinkie. You need volume.
 
"I can get a 36-pack of Pabst way quicker and cheaper and still get just as hammered off of it."
 
"Is it good? I don't want to try it unless it's good."

Said by a neighbor when I offered him a pint. I haven't offered again.

Did he think it was good?

My neighbors have been pretty impressed.

Had a wine snob just sort of snub me, like yeah we stooped to drink your homebrews one night after drinking some quality sulfited wine.

Wine snobs.

I told him to come by if he wanted to try it. He never came by...

Dude, them be fightin' words. Perfect example of why the majority of beer snobs are the BMC drinkers, not us craft beer/homebrew drinkers.

Buddy says, "Everybody likes your homebrews. Think you can make me something like Molson?"

Haha! At least he asked for Molson instead of Bud or Coors!
