I think what a lot of us dark-beer&ale types don't get is that is that different brews are better at different temperatures.
If you're somewhere where it's hot, then you want liquid that's cold - and lighter brews tend to be better in that temp range.
I spent a few weeks in Fiji - the local beer is very light, but served the way the locals drink it (cold enough to make your teeth hurt - actually had my hand stick to an ultra-cold mug once) it's IMHO pretty good.
I'm a New Englander (where it's usually not 'way hot) and normally prefer darker brews at "cellar" or "fridge" temps (try some of the Wachusett brews if you end up in the area).
