Not too dark and probably not too expensive, but the last good new beer I tried was Smithwicks.

Depends what you have access to.
The usual places I guess. Bars, grocery stores. There's also two pretty large distributors with a big stock by me, was thinking about stopping there and checking out the selection to see if anything grabbed my eye. I much prefer dark beer over light.
Well I don't know what beers they sell in your area, so I can only suggest stuff I know.

Well it says you live in NY, so I suggest Goose Island (not a NY brewery, but they distribute to NY). I know for sure you should be able get some Brooklyn, always a solid choice. Also, Saranac Double IPA is surprisingly excellent beer from a rather mediocre brewery.

For Goose Island and Brooklyn they have several verities, just get the one you think you would like, pale ale, ipa, brown ale, etc.

For a good dark beer I know you should be able to find is Leinenkugel Russian Imperial Stout, which is again, a surprisingly good beer for an extremely mediocre brewery. It is not the best RIS, but it is a solid choice if you have never had a RIS.

I had to google what Vimto was, sounds pretty tasty. I love the flavor of black currants.

The Vimto factory was about half a mile from my house until it moved about 5 years ago.
