If you are new, I would go with the DME pre-packaged mixes for your first couple brews. They are cheaper and will allow you to get a feel for the entire process of brewing. It takes a little practice to get the logistics of everything down. Believe me, you'll be stumbling over yourself the first time you brew by yourself.

Some recipes can be expensive, so just in case it doesn't work out with the pre-packaged mix, you won't be out a bunch of cash.

Just remember, the most important aspect of homebrewing is steralization. It doesn't take more than a couple microbes to turn your nice Ale into Vinegar.

As for my favorites, I posted a couple of them in my first post.
