If you're looking for cheap rock gut college beer I'd recommend a dirty 30 of High Life.Shifter.Unit said:
In alphabetical order, here are the five I have been enjoying the most lately:
1. Delirium Tremens [http://www.pascalkolkman.com/delirium/index.html]
2. Dogfish Head 120 minute IPA [http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/occassional-rarities/120-minute-ipa.htm]
3. Golden Monkey [http://www.victorybeer.com/golden_monkey.aspx]
4. Smithwick's [http://www.smithwicks.ie/]
5. Theobroma [http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/occassional-rarities/theobroma.htm]
Despite the fact that you don't like IPAs, I highly recommend you give the Dogfish Head a shot. Maybe not the 120 as it can get kind of expensive, but if you can find a bottle of the 90 minute or, even better, if it's on tap near you, I highly recommend giving it a shot. It's still a little pricey but in my opinion it's highly worth it. My girlfriend, who really hates that bitter flavor, loves it. The hopping process they use creates more of a floral, sweet taste to it that is much more approachable than a standard IPA.
Since I can't stop tooting DFH's horn, I might as well suggest the Immort Ale [http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/occassional-rarities/immort-ale.htm] and the Olde School Barleywine [http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/occassional-rarities/olde-school-barleywine.htm].

I'm a pretty big fan of Western Canadian microbreweries like Granville Island, Okanogan Springs, and Big Rock; I really enjoy all of their ales and IPAs. There's also a brew-pub in vancouvr called "steamworks" that has some of the best (and most expensive - seriously, like $20 a pitcher) beer I've ever tasted. If you're ever in Vancouver during October, you owe it to yourself to grab a pint of pumpkin ale.
Woodforde Wherry
London Pride
Bombadier (bottle or pump only)
Secret Kingdom
Punk IPA
Hobgoblin
Cobra
Sol
Boddingtons
And for the record the worst beers I've ever had are Grolsch Blonde which tastes of piss, John Smiths which tastes of nothing and canned Bombadier which tastes of metal

I have substantially cut back on my beer drinking, but when I do drink beer lately, I've been drinking sour ales. New Belgium La Folie [http://www.newbelgium.com/beer/la-folie] is a personal favorite. The Trip III that they make is pretty good too, but it's only available on tap in the Pacific NW.
A friend of mine brought over a case of leinenkugel fireside nut brown for his contribution to Thanksgiving-- it was tasty.
EDIT: worth mentioning that I ordinarily abhor New Belgium beers; but the La Folie is sooooo unique and tasty that I'm willing to shell out the $15.00 for a 22oz bottle of it.

1. Guiness
2. Blue Moon
3. Arrogant Bastard Ale (look it up)

Me not like beer. Tastes rather bitter and not at all good.
I prefer... what do you call it? We hungarians call it "pálinka" but I suppose alcoholic drink made of fruit (can be peach, pear, apple whatever)will have to do. Has a taste (if it isn't the shit you buy in stores) and is pretty goddamn strong. Also the manliest drink ever.
