Extract IPA with 1098 slurry?

[sutepan]

Making a bit of a bastard beer tomorrow with ingredients I have laying around. I usually pitch 1056 for IPAs, but have a nice 1098 slurry I took out of the secondary from a pale ale 3 weeks ago and was thinking of just going with that.

Any comments/ideas on how that'll affect this recipe?

1098 is my new house strain for Pale ales and IPA. I used to use 1056 for these, but really like how clean, fast and flocculant 1098 ferments. While certainly not an expert, I can't taste any difference between my house IPA (two hearted clone) fermented with 1056 and 1098.
