Ignore the beer snobs in the room and go get yourself a 12-pack of a decent American beer - Miller High Life and Coors (Yellow label, not silver) for choice. Work through that at your own pace. That will give you a decent baseline as to what "beer" tastes like. From there you can experiment with what flavors you like: Lighter, stronger, more bitter, less,
Truth be told, I tend not to drink anything "fancier" than Michelob or Heineken. Microbrews tend to be too bitter for my tates and the higher-end imports are basically liquid bread to my palate. (Of course, I drink beer less for the taste and more to make the room spin pleasantly).
