I'm a sissy. Any particular recommendations for light beers (low bitterness)? And I'm not talking cheap American beer water, because that is no good either to me.

A lot of people would probably criticize this recommendation for being a little too sweet, but I found that Venn, a lager by Ninkasi, is actually pretty good. Virtually zero bitterness that I could detect, and I'm pretty good at picking bitterness out of almost any non-brown ale, so I'd suggest giving that a try.

If you're only talking about low bitterness, and not about low alcohol content, then you may also think about trying a couple of different stouts. If you're looking for a dessert drink, chocolate stouts are fantastic. Stouts, in general, are less bitter than your typical pale ale flavor profile, but are dark, strong and taste of roasted malts. They're definitely not light in any sense of the word, other than not being particularly bitter, though.

Blue Moon is also pretty famous for non-bitter wheat ales. In particular, Belgian White is pretty decent. Not as bold, in flavor, as the others I suggested, but still pretty good. If you can handle a little extra bitterness for the sake of better flavor, UFO White is a better wheat ale than most of the Blue Moon varieties, in my opinion.

Martha Steward recommends Bell's Oarsman...

Is he talking about lighter beer or light beer? Not the same thing....

Primarily low IBU. No beer water. I guess I've seen some of the low ibu stuff described as light but I'm a beer newbie.
