Danstar Windsor alternative

Hi Guys,

I've been working my way through a recipe I made using Danstars' Windsor ale yeast. Generally the beer has come out very well but I'm a little dissatisfied with the yeast. It has been a right bugger to get to flocculate and the flavours are a bit 2 dimensional. Any suggestions on a strain with similar properties but a better flavour and more flocculant?

Thanks

Wyeast 1332 Northwest Ale

Perhaps even Wyeast 1272 American Ale II

Both may leave a little tartness with fruity esters.

Thanks mate, you don't happen to know if there is a white labs equivalent?

Check out yeastcalc.com
It has a very good YEAST STRAIN GUIDE. :mug:
