Notingham replaced by British Ale II - your thoughts
« on: September 20, 2015, 08:48:35 am »
I am planning a Hobgoblin clone which calls for Nottingham yeast.  I really have not enjoyed Nottingham yeast in the past so I am thinking of replacing it with another traditional English strain.  I like the sounds of British Ale II WY1335 and wondered what you - the experts - think of the replacement.

I haven't ever used the 1335 but based on its descriptions it sounds like it's worth trying.  Should be an acceptable replacement, probably not identical but in the ballpark.

FYI -- WLP039 is said to be identical to Notty but since it's from a different manufacturer, it might be different and worth a shot if you don't like Danstar's version.

Well my British Ale II was DOA evidently. Bummer. Had to break out the emergency stash of S-04. I guess I should went with Nottingham.
