1. What beers have you tried? If your answer is Bud/Miller/Coors, then I can understand why you don't like beer. These beers tend to be very weak in flavor, and what they do have is, well, bad.

2. What STYLES of beer have you tried? IPAs, Stouts, and Porters tend to be a little tough for beer beginners. (IPAs will taste "soapy" while Stouts and Porters may taste too thick.)

3. Gateway beers:

Yuengling Lager - America's oldest brewery knows how to brew a simple beer. I know more than one person who will drink a lager, even though they dislike most other brewers/styles.

Victory Prima Pils - This is a nice introduction to hops, while still being mild and smooth. Very drinkable.

PBC Kenzinger - Another mild beer that does basic better than B/M/C. Not as widely available, but a great solid beer if you get a chance to try one.

Allagash White - This is a spicier beer, but it's very mild in flavor and goes down smooth. A drastic difference in change if you just can't handle hops.

Linderman's Frambois Raspberry Lambic - Okay, this is more "juice" than "beer," but a lambic is still a beer, and this still has some essential beer characteristics. Also... it's damn tasty and low APV.
