I don't think the exact kind of beer matters, but I think you would be best with something like this:

1. Simple beers that only have a bittering component will take less effort than more complicated pale ales that have bittering, flavoring and aroma hops.
2. Something that is not high gravity. You want to start with something that is OG 1.070 or less, it just makes the whole progress easier.
3. Use dry yeast. You have a a whole bunch more yeast cells with the dry yeast. You don't need to make a starter and its cheaper.
4. Do a malt extract beer with some grains, but do not start with a mini-mash or all-grain.
5. Get a recipe kit from a home brew store that does not require a secondary fermenter.
6. Do it this time of year (at least in the south eastern us where the avg temp is in the 60s) so you do not have to use a temperature controlled fridge.
7. Buy 22 oz bottles so the bottling process goes easier.
8. Use a sanitizer that you can buy from a home brew store. I do not recommend using bleach.

Above all, you do need to brew something that you like, otherwise you won't want to progress and relax, have a home brew!
