I'm American

Walking home from class, I got my headphones in, when a man stops me.

Man: Excuse me.... uh, I (pointing at self), am American.... and I was... wondering, um, if there is somewhere i can go (pause), to buy some (pause) li-quor (preforms a gesture where he pretends to drink out of an imaginary bottle)?

Me: Yeah, there is a grocery store right there- to the left.

Ah... What? Did he think that I didn't speak English?
Or possibly, did he think I was a moron?
