Rogue's in Portland, and they brew a pretty broad range of beers. Their
Dead Guy Ale is quite approachable, and decent. If you want to try some
good stouts, their Chocolate and Shakespeare stouts are exceptional.
Fish Tale is pretty highly-regarded, though I think they tend to make
more aggressive beers. That being said, their Poseidon Imperial Stout is
pretty incredible stuff.

For Pale Ales, Stone IPA is very hoppy, but it's more of a citric
character than pure bitterness. FYI, for good places to hit to find
different beers, here's a generic Ratebeer link:

I'm going to agree with the malty recommendations here.

If Killians is more to your liking and something like Bridgeport IPA
(which I would consider fairly typical for IPA) was still a tad bitter,
then I recommend the maltier beers: Rogue's stouts and porters (OK,
Shakespeare is pretty hoppy), brown ale, and dead guy ale.
Look into any dark lagers, this list includes Killians and some that are
like it, including some that are better:
