Yeast.
I would go with the Notty. But, that's because I can't stand the taste imparted by the 04.

Nottingham would be closer to US-05. S-04 is going to be more fruity and estery.

Cool thanks.
I'm doing a two gallon batch of American Pale Ale (which calls for Nottingham) and a one gallon batch of Grapefruit Honey Ale which calls for "English Ale Yeast". Wondering if both could use the same yeast (as combined it's only 3 gallons and, goldarnit I'm *CHEAP* [and proud of it!]). I think I want the Grapefruit Honey Ale to be frutier though. So I guess I'll get both...

Notty finishes dry and is very clean. S-04 has nice British fruity esters.
