Unibroue makes some of my absolute favorite beers, and the best part... some of the are like wine - they actually get BETTER with age!!
I learned about the brand at a bar, and the first beer of their that I tried was called "La Fin Du Monde" (translated: The End of the World - how cool is that?). It tastes more complex than a Hefeweizen, but similarly mellow.
I found out that a local grocery store in my area called Central Market carries many of the Unibroue brand.
I've subsequently tried:
"Trois Pistoles"
"Maudite" (translated: The Damned One)
La Fin Du Monde is still my favorite, with Maudite a close second.
And I plan on trying:
"Éphémère" - which is an Ale with fruit (I'm hoping similar to a cider)
These beers have a higher alcohol concentration (9%) and a long shelf life.

Here's a few for you that I like a lot:
Yuengling Lager from Pennsylvania
Mississippi Mud (comes in a neat jug)
Framboise, Kriek and Pecheresse - These are Belgian, like Hoegarden. They're flavored with raspberry, cherry and peach, respectively. Really, really good!
Leffe is another good Belgian beer
Chimay (made by Trappist monks)
Highland Oatmeal Porter (Asheville, NC)
Fischer Ambree (France)
If you like Hefeweizen, have you tried Franziskaner and Weihanstephan? Those are two of my favorites. Weihanstephan is so delicious, I wish they sold it where I live.
Moretti Dark (Italy)
That's all I can think of for now! Making me thirsty!

Try brewing your own beer! I do, and it's great! You can start with a standard Hefeweizen recipe, and then alter each subsequent batch slightly until you make your perfect beer. It's not that hard, really.
Find a local brewing supply store, and just go down there one day and talk to them. They are very nice, and can get you started quite cheaply.

Molson Canadian!!! and take of eh, ya hoser. British Ciders are very good, recommend Woodpecker. In USA beers Anchor Steam Draught(but I think they spell it as draft) and Rolling Rock,
Japan"'s Ahashi Premium is nice and most of their other product is good,many of the micro brewers have interesting product. German wheat bears can be a real treat with natural flavours from the brewing mimicking bananas, strawberries, chocolate, and on and on. Remember drinking and driving do not mix, you might spill some :-) enjoy , you might want to see if there are any beer tastings(like wine tastings,but heartier) in your area and check out the home brew supply stores, they are usually a good source of info

Richard is a douche. Agree. BTW there are more microbreweries in in USA making flavorful beer than ALL the beer in UK. If you think like Richard "the douche" & believe Americans just drink what is advertised on TV well then you're a moron just like him. Warsteiner is a darn good beer, little expensive in the States. Sam Adams Black Lager is great!

It sounds like you like light-mid/heavy beers. Try Japanese and Indian Ales, they are full-flavored but light and not too filling. I love Sapporo and Kirin Ichiban, and IPA. If you want something fun and fruity, try Pyramid Apricot Ale instead of your snake bites. It's tasty and a little fruity, but they don't filter their beers, so they have a bite to them. They're great for summer!
