@oni_dels‌ what kind of questions do you have? Have you read How to Brew? (the web version is outdated, but it contains most of what you need to know)

I think you should brew a beer that you like, so if you like English ales or stouts then go with that. If you like Belgians or lagers, you can make those with varying levels of ingenuity. I made my first lager by putting it in a Rubbermaid cooler filled with water, then swapped out 4 frozen 1/2 liter bottles every 12 hours. It kept it cool enough.

If you haven't brewed before with specialty grains and hops, I would recommend getting that process down before trying to design your own recipes. But that's because I'm a planner and so if you want to throw some stuff in a pot and see what happens, then do that. Your homebrew shop can hook you up with a recipe and ingredients for whatever style you're thinking of.

If you get a turkey-fryer to do a full boil outside you'll also need a wort chiller to cool it down after, so put that in your budget. And you'll still want to use some malt extract (the syrup-y substance or a powder) unless you want to jump right into all-grain brewing. You can get light, unhopped malt extract that can act as a base for your beer without limiting your creativity too much.
