A few years ago I was like that, so I definitely hear you. You should try Hoegarden, or Hitachino Nest White Ale, they're both Belgian Wits, and two of my favorite light bodied beers. Nowadays I am addicted to hopped up IPAs, some of my favorties are Stone IPA, Anderson Valley's Hop Ottin and Sierra Nevada's Torpedo Extra IPA. I think after a certain point your tongue gets used to the bitterness and it feels robbed if it isn't there. I feel the same way as you do about Hops about the uber-full bodied cigars like LFD Chisels, they just seem excessive to my palette.
