Can anyone recommend a good beer for me to try based on the following?
I like Lagers and Pilsners and HeffeWeisen. I don't like Stout or Bitters or Dark (Motor Oil) Beers. My current favorite is Shiner Bock, a nice little number from Texas. I also like Yueng Leng and Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale. I DON'T like Budweiser, Miller, or Busch. I'm looking for exotic, off-the beaten-path Beers. Who can hook me up?

To all the folks who recommended Blue Moon.... sorry, tried it and didn't care for it (although I think it was seriously old... if I can find it on tap somewhere here in Podunkville I'll give it another try).

Ok, we have similar taste in beer, so let me tell you what I like...
These are not so exotic: Killian's, Newcastle
A bit more exotic: See if you can find Shiner Kolsch, or any kolsch for that matter. Kolsch is the beer of Cologne, Germany. It has a very clean finish.
Or, maybe you can try Boddingtons Pub Ale. It is poured like Guinness (through nitrous), but (I think) has a cleaner finish. It's a great one to get on tap, but they also have them in big yellow cans.
Samuel Adams or in my city you can create your own.
franziskaner
Erdinger
etc

paulaner
I like Fat Tire. It is similar to a heffeweisen, but slightly sweeter and fuller bodied. It is often served with an orange instead of a lemon to complament the sweetness.
I've found a fun beer at BevMo. Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale...go to BevMo.com to find more details.
Steel Reserve is nice and gives you a pretty decent buzz,
Blue Moon!
I just had an awesome American Pale Ale from a small micro brewery in Kentucky.

Blue Moon Beer...it's the best on tap with a slice of orange.
A couple German beers you may like are Bitburger Premium Pils and Erdinger Weissbier(awesome wheat beer). I agree about Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale,everyone should try this one.
Shiner Bock lover myself
Try Blue Moon (Belgian Wheat) by Molson - Typically served with a slice of orange,but I like it with a wedge of lemon

have ya tried Pabst blue ribbon? goes down smooth, light on taste, not too thick, pretty much see-through. in fact, ever had tap water 'been sittin in a cat bowl for three weeks?
