Since you live in Indiana, see if you can find some Three Floyds "Alpha King Pale Ale". It is the top pale ale in the USA, and made in Indiana. Or Three Floyds "Gumballhead". It's a wheat ale, and is the top wheat ale in the USA. Three Floyds is a very good brewery.

You probably also have Great Lakes, Founders, Bell's, Goose Island, and Victory products available where you live. Try their pale ales, lagers, pilsners and/or wheat beers. These types will be a more comfortable step for you into craft beers than jumping into India Pale Ales, which have more hops and can be somewhat bitter. Goose Island "Honkers Ale", Victory "Prima Pils", Great Lakes "Dortmunder Gold", Great Lakes "Burning River", Founders "Harvest Ale", and Bell's "Amber Ale" are all great beers which should be in your area.
hm alright ill give them a try and tell you how i liked em. heineken turned me off to imported beers but if you say they are the worst of the worst im willing to try some of the ones you have listed.
