Rum&coke and bud limes are not the way to go through life. I recommend vodka&pineapple juice to expand your liquor drinking. Then start expanding your beer horizon with mixer packs of microbrews.
Realistically though you don't seem like a drinker. Try weed, not that mexican brick garbage, ask around for the good stuff. Drive to Denver if you have to and go on a mental space ship ride.

The first time I had beer with the intention of drinking the whole thing, I was 12 and had just finished building a bin. It was about 90 degrees out, and it was a Busch Light.
Absolute euphoria, from Jump Street. It was delicious, refreshing, and most importantly, intoxicating.
so go work like a dog and then drink something cheap and light and you'll be hooked unless you're a real Sally

I wish I didnt like beer because of the calories and I drink a lot of them. If you dont like the taste of beer, dont force yourself to drink it or find something you like. Id order a double rum and coke but only double the pop. Maybe then you would drink it faster.
Only benefit of beer over liquor is portability.

Thats funny, similar story. My first beer was with some friends after tarring a roof. So this license plate factory needed resurfacing, and they needed a dozen volunteers for a weeks work.......My friends and I were use to working indoors and this was outdoor work and in May, and May is one fine month to be working outdoors. Problem was we had to volunteer and over 100 men volunteered. Luckily, we bribed the guy and got the work, only cost a pack a smokes per man. So were working, and next thing you know our buddy offers one of the guys in charge some free tax advice, saves him thousands. Traded that for some beers as we werent allowed beer. Working outdoors, you feel more like a man if you can have a bottle of suds. And thats how it came to pass, that on the 2nd to last day of the job, the crew that tarred the plate factory roof in the spring of 49, wound up sitting in a row at 10am in the morning, drinking icy cold bohemian style beer. We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulder and felt like free men, hell we could have been tarring the roof of one of our houses, we were the lords of all creation.
This. Others would tell you otherwise, but no one would be drinking a beer if it didn't get you drunk. You develope a taste for it over time, but it is not a naturally good taste. Same goes for coffee. I love both of them now, but if it wasn't for the effect I would never have started drinking either of them.
Pro tip: Drink Wine, gets you drunk and you look classy. Unless you are at a bar bar, then you look like an *******.
Do you like coffee? If so, a stout or porter might not be a huge stretch. A lot of oatmeal stouts are relatively mild on hop flavor.
Otherwise I concur with previous advice to try some wheats or hefeweizens. COLD cold boulevard wheat with lemon is where is start. I prefer boulevard personally, but goose island 312 wheat is also similarly inoffensive.
Hefeweizen (half wheat) is brewed with part wheat and part barley. I'm probably not the best to make specific recs of hefes as I don't drink them much. Franziskaner is probably one of the most readily available, but has a bit of a different flavor so you may love it or hate it.

It has changed. It's brewed by Schell's now and it's no longer terrible. It's not exactly a craft beer but it compares favorably to Bud Light, Miller Light...
Most at that I know who drink it drink nordester. It's a heavier grain belt. I think it still sucks, but cold it is drinkable. Then again I don't like beer that much. I roll with Guinness when I can.

I'll bet that sounded funnier in your head. Problem is, the world hit peak Shawshank quite a while ago. Doesn't have the same oomph anymore.
I actually like the Nordeast. It doesn't have the full-bodied flavor of the Reds, Ambers and IPA's that I love. However, when compared to the other beers at a similar price point it is right near the top in my book.
