A connoisseur or aficionado maybe... but not a stealth marketer...
That being said -
I agree with your understanding of people tiring of the mass-market el-cheapo crap that is peddled through constant marketing campaigns - particularlly the crap marketed as the cheaper choice (gee wonder what age group that's aimed at).
I whole heartedly agree about the amazing selection of quality beers/ales/porters/bitters/pilsners/stouts available - you just have to be a little decerning. I'm always ready to try a microbrew, specialty, or import that I have tasted before, because maybe I'm missing something I'll love (and add to the line-up).
Some personal favs:
Guiness (old stand-by)
Creemore
Wellington County Ale
Kawartha Lakes Brewery (KLB) Raspberry Wheat

My current favourite is London Porter - a 'live' porter with a chocolately aroma and taste... with a subtle hint of coffee - I think it'll be my "winter beer" this year (as long as the pub keeps it stocked)
