My oldest daughter has been living in the Dallas - Fort Worth Texas area for over 25 years. When she is speaking to me alone she may say, "Do you all want a beer?" When she is speaking to a group that includes me, she says, "Do all you all want a beer?"
Those regionalism language quirks will drive any logician crazy!
My answer, regardless of how many in the group my daughter addresses is always, "YES!" (because I'll drink the beer of any teetotalers plus my own.)

Being in Fort Worth, are you sure she did not say "Do Ya'll want a beer."
