Most (definitely not all) people find their way into craft beer with a nice wheat (American Wheat or Hefeweizen) or a lighter beer such as a craft Lager or Pilsner, or Blonde, Cream or Pale Ale. There are some that jump right into something heavier like an IPA, Brown or Stout (Personally, Avery's Ellie's Brown Ale was what first got me drinking good beer). I would recommend going to a local brewpub and getting a 10-12 beer flight of tasters. It is an easy and inexpensive way to try a good example of numerous beers across variable styles and usually get a little bit of info about each style. Once you find a style/styles that you like, go from there.
