I am not much of a beer drinker, but I am wanting to try some of the Abita flavors..

when I drink beer, If I do a "light", I drink Bud Light and I also like Samuel Adams Light.
in the every day beers, I find Modelo, Dos X, fine. Have even liked Red Stripe

I hate Heineken and Corona and all "bitter" beers.

I know I have not given much to work with, but any ideas as to the Albita's I should try ?

Just drink St. Arnold Lawnmower. That will be perfect for your palate.

It's not going to blow your mind or palate away, but maybe it'll open you up to some more interesting stuff down the road. Right now your palate sucks. That sounds harsh, and it probably is, but 98% of us were there at some point.

Try a lot of make your own six packs. That'll give you the chance to try a decent amount without committing more than you want to one beer. Happy drinking.

You should avoid IPAs and APAs for a while. You might like Fat Tire.

You got it ... and I know it.. my palate sucks. I am a rum drinker... will try your suggestion.

I have been reading in TOTAL WINE STORE about these..
Boddington's
Angry Orchard
KY Bourbon Ale
Anchor Steam Beer
do any of these ring a bell ?

Fat Tire sounded interesting as well .. as the previous post suggested
