Judging by your list, nothing I drink will really be pleasing to you. You have to work your way into the dark stuff.

Give a local microbrew brown ale a shot. Brown ale is kind of the stepping stone between light beers and dark beers.

I like Guinness and Murphy's, but you need some experience first.
Grab a Yuengling. It's OK for cheap beer.

Hmmm...
2 off the top of my head

Flat Tire
Pete?s Wicked Ale

If you buy Pete's swish it around in your mouth during your first drink.
Very creamy, I liked it. Thanks to the guys here at Anandtech for the recommendation.

Im thinking you need to try MGD as it is the *BEST* standard beer and you havent tried it.

More...

Heinken - You've already tried it. Gave me a massive hangover, but I drank a 12 in one night, got what I deserved. I classify this one in the skunk beer category.

Becks - It's ok, but it to belongs in the skunk beer category. Don't believe me? Start drinking Bud Light then switch to Becks you'll see what I mean.

Shiner Bock - Good beer, with a slightly strong taste.

Guniness draught - Strong, but not for everyone. The beer has the color of coke poured in a glass. Very good beer in my opinion as long as it has a head. Once the head is gone it becomes bitter, so drink fast.

Dos Equis - Both the lager (green bottle) and amber (brown bottle) are good beers, but I did prefer the amber for some reason.

I drink pretty much everything (though I really can't stand the really cheap stuff: aka Budweiser, Bud Lite, and similar), but here are a couple of my favorites:

Hoegaarden and Samuel Smith's Old Brewery Pale Ale.

The former is a nice, white Belgian beer, and the latter is just an awesome pale ale that has garnered very high praise from virtually all print magazines, including Wine Enthusiast.

Icehouse $.89 per 24oz. Six pack = $2.67.

If I'm out Bass or Guiness black and tan.
