Progress is a strong ale uses only marris otter and progress hops ( an english old ale hybrid at 11%)

Cherries in the snow is the recipe from the complete joy of homebrewing, the bottle you have is aged 3 years. and used sour cherries.

heres a link with reviews from another HBT user, has the first virsion of progress and the cherries in the snow.

just got mine from bestebrew. there r 3 oat cream stouts, my fav beer is oat stout, so I cant wait for these. might age one a few months as well. then 3 citra pale ales woth half a pound of citra in it. sounds great, I love citra. then the holy grail of all beers, a 120 min ale. I have never had on, as they ate not available in Idaho, but I have herd great things. will be having this one with dinner tonight. I contemplated letting it age a while, but I must try. very generous swap, thank you. will be updating as I drink. cheers!

 

[Zoidberg]

Imo aging the 120's not worth it mean its a great beer but I liked it better fresh or at lead right when I bought it compared to almost a year later. It was a bit smoother but the flavor didn't seem any better or more complex. I've only ever had it those 2 times. I believe that was 2012 release, maybe 2011

Awesome, never tried any progress hops (that I'm aware of) so interested to try that one. Never heard of cherries in the snow so I pulled out my copy of complete joy and looked it up. Sounds good, I like a good cherry beer when fresh is used. Extract always comes out like cough medicine (Sam Adams Cherry Wheat anyone?)

so im just finishing up the 120 min. bestebrew says its at least 3 years old. it is very good, but not something I would drink every day. very very strong, thick flavor. very floral, and almost condensed mouth feel. swambo thought it was gross, lol. went well with the new York steaks we had. I got a heavy buzz off the 12 oz bottle. I think they are around 17-18% abv. now to try the citra

 

[Twobrokebrewing]

Getting a chance to see what others sent, I feel like a cheapskate. Being new to the group i did not realize how far above and beyond every one went. I only sent the minimum. Next time I will do better.

 

[trefilov22]

Got my package today! Not sure what it is though, it's not labeled Lol. Hopefully Two broke can enlighten me! Thanks again!

 

[Twobrokebrewing]

I've been waiting all day for you to get it. Those are my Saint Paul vanilla porters. It was all I had on tap right now. They are 4% abv. 60 ibu. My efficiency was a little low on that one so it didn't have the body I was hoping. But it is very refreshing and easy drinking.

Awesome! I didn;t see this post before I responded to your message! Sounds good! I will give them a try Saturday when I am off work! I wish I could have one right now while I am watching the Spurs pummel the Thunder, but I gotta work at midnight (blah!).

Thanks again for the brew! I look forward to tasting it!

 

[MikePote]

Package received! Im super tired and will post pics tomorrow.

Cmoewes your package is sitting at work with a shipping label awaiting pickup tomorrow. I forgot to grab the tracking number but will get it tomorrow and PM it to you.

 

[Terek]

this is the citra bomb pale ale. Tastes great. could be more balanced, has a lot of hop flavor, but im pretty sure thats what you were going for. Very floral aroma, and good body. Head retention could be better for a pale ale. Im pretty sure you were going for a pale ale beer instead of an ipa, great job keeping the bitterness down with such a high amount of hops.
