I'm planning on making a Scottish Ale 80 Shilling and I'm trying to figure out what yeast to use. Obviously WLP028 is the natural choice, but I'm wondering why WLP007 isn't used more often. White Labs has several suggestions for WLP007 and Scottish Ale only got a 2 (see here: http://www.whitelabs.com/yeast/wlp007-dry-english-ale-yeast) Oddly, Strong Scoth Ale and Irish Red Ales both got 4s but plain old Scottish Ale is a 2...
So what's keeping WLP007 from being a leading contender for a scottish ale despite the fact that it fits with Wee Heavies and Irish ales so well?
What other yeasts would you use in a Scottish ale that I'm not thinking of?
