Of the rice beers, I prefer bud. it's quality low end beer with rice added with its fermentables in order to kill the beer aftertaste. They say it gives it a 'crisp' taste.
If you are drinking bottles, and unsure, go for michelob or something like that. Also a lighter lager.
My preference when out: Smithwicks, Guiness or Yuengling
For a novice beer drinker though, stella will have an afterbite that many won't like. It is definitely a step in the right direction after acquiring the taste for beer. Harp also falls in that area for me.
