If you like a dark beer my fave so far has to be Coopers Stout
If you like a lighter beer my fave so far is York Stonewall

Take your pick, I am looking to pick up a Admirals Reserve Kit from the Brewery Shop next week (although I know it is brewed in Suffolk and Muntons)

I also agree with a couple of posters that recommend spraymalt instead of table, however, feel that it is best to follow the instructions until you get some practice in.

Whatever you decide, have fun

I'm very impressed with the Brupack's Colne Valley Bitter that I'm currently drinking. As good as anything that I've brewed.

Yes and the kits are a fiver cheaper if you do the Brewery Tour.

There's also a gift shop selling York Brewery stuff at the front of The Yorkshire Terrier Inn at 10 Stonegate York.

You've answered your own question, but you do get a free one pint of beer sampling and you can buy a York Brewery beer kit for a fiver less.

I'm only on my eighth brew, but other than the ubiquitous (and scarily suppable) Wherry, my best have been Brupaks Fixby Gold (with added 500g hopped spraymalt and bottled - very very good) and Coopers Dark Ale. both excellent brews!
