My favorite was Great Lakes Burning River Pale Ale. I've recently developed a taste for IPAs (note you will likely not like them and I would not recommend them to a beer noob).

If you want to expand your selection start with Pale Ales and Ambers (ala Killians). You could try Golden Ales and Lagers, but IMO they taste too similar to an American Pilsner and aren't worth the price increase.
Burning River is great, probably my favorite.

Newcastle is another good one. If I have to drink cheap domestic shit, it's usually coors light.
