Everybody's tastes are different, so you just have to go out and taste a lot of beers and see what you like. For Christmas, I got a gift certificate to a place that sells a huge variety of beers and sells them by the bottle. Maybe there's a place in your area that does the same thing.
Also, check http://beeradvocate.com/ . Click on the beerfly link under "Travel & Events" and look to see what's in your area. |

IPA is not near it. It would be easier for him from a taste standpoint to start out with more similar beers and expand. |

Shiner Bock is good stuff. I see it sporadically in odd places since I've first had it in Dallas. I read somewhere that Stella used to be a cheap beer and then they started marketing it as a higher grade beer and it started to sell better. Any truth to that? [/ QUOTE ] All I know about stella is that it currently outsells budweiser in the NYC market and is considered the Budweiser of where its from. |

Wow, the DFH and Stone are absolutely terrible recommendations for this guy. He's probably not really going to enjoy dunking his head in a barrel of hops just yet.
Stella is typical Eurolager crap and people that order it at bars are probably the same people that insist on Grey Goose. |

This is a case of some people that want to drop their beer cred without actually reading the OP. |

2 of my favorites that I recommend to Newcastle drinkers are Old Speckled Hen and John Courage.
