Just don't eat that yellow snow.
And don't drink that yellow beer, either.
There's nothing wrong with "yellow" per se, but beer with any flavor at all (not like Bud, Miller, Coors, for example) tend be German lagers and Pilseners and the bitterness is much appreciated by those who enjoy them.
Also, definitely avoid most American craft/microbrew pale ales and IPAs and such. Bitterness and hop flavor are key elements of the American Ale style. English dark ales, if you can find them, tend to be more malt-forward. Porter (English, not American) might be just what you're looking for. You might also enjoy Newcastle Brown Ale, which is usually readily available.
Most importantly, you should remember that your appreciation of beer is greatly enhanced by exploring its many varieties and styles.
That is pretty similar to the situation with whiskey, as well. So, if you decided to go that route, be prepared for a long, interesting, and rather addictive journey. Probably more so than with whiskey, since beer is much less costly.
