Same as you, OP. Not a beer drinker. I keep some Sam Adams on hand, and then something 'crafty', usually Flying Dog. I make sure they aren't both IPA, Porter, Dark Ale, etc, just to make sure there is variety.

White collar professionals. Lots of people drink Miller Lite.

I usually get a lager like Yeungling (I'm from PA and I love it, don't care what haters think!), an ale or IPA like Dogfish head, and a craft brew that's seasonal or a wheat beer like Blue Moon.

Sam Adams seems to be popular with my group, as does Heineken (I don't like that one, but if it's what my guests like I'll get it for them).

Just get at least one lighter lager and one ale or craft for variety. People will appreciate it!

Oh, great. A beer snob. The most insufferable species of snob.

I can't drink beer so I have no idea what brand or type to buy when we entertain. Any suggestions for a beer that is pretty much universally liked?
