If you don't like beer, I'm going to recommend you drink something else. If you can better define what you don't like about a specific beer you've had, we can talk about beers that might fit your palette a bit better.

The best thing to do if you want to try some beers is go to a beer bar that does flights/tastings and try a bunch of different styles. Non-beer drinkers should probably stay away from lagers, pilsners, and IPAs, as that's what people like OP associate with "piss water" but that's a pretty small portion of what makes up the styles of beers. Stouts, sours, fruited beers, ambers, hefewiesens, are a bit more friendly to the palette.
