A Progress / Challenger combination sounds very good. Does anyone have a tried and tested recipe?

Not here sadly although you will not go far wrong with something either 100% pale malt, or say 98% pale 2% crystal and then the hops.

Either norttingham yeast 8 my favourite) or something like S04 to keep a little sweetnes.
