the small volume of alcohol in beer has the effect of essentially shutting off the hormone that causes you to retain liquid, so no matter how much water you drink, you're not hydrating yourself as you normally would.

Lagers are not inherently "neutral" in flavour, unless you mean industrial macropiss like Bud or Heineken. Clean fermented saisons are a universally more versatile style for pairing with food in general, and a lot of traditional pales and bitters work equally well. Cask ale is arguably the best beer of all to pair with hearty food since the lower carbonation makes for far less bloat and is kinder on the digestive tract.

A red ale is any ale from a medium-dark amber to a medium copper (9-15ish SRM, not blonde but not brown). Irish Red Ale is absolutely a recognized style of beer.
Brown Ales (13-35ish SRM, most commonly 15-25) have some overlap with red and porters (20-35SRM). So some porters qualify as a brown ale (and vice versa) but they're not interchangeable.

Good ones are pretty good, bad ones are chilled garbage. The style isn't necessarily the problem, it's what people do with it. You can make a hoppy beer with enough malt to balance it out. You can soften the pinene and accent the limonene and myrcene in the hops. You can give it a bit of crystal malt and still make a pale ale. If you're not married to a specific substyle or set of ingredients, you can sub out different hops, malts, and yeasts to tailor the beer.
