Default Yeast for "Vienna Ale"?

I'm about to brew this up:

5lbs Vienna
5lbs 2-row
2lbs Flaked Corn

0.5oz Magnum @ 90m
1.0oz Tenttnag @ 5m

I am trying to decide which yeast to use. I have US-05 and Nottingham on hand and am leaning toward Nottingham.

This will be fermented at a little under 65*F.

Which yeast should I use.?

I say us-05, I think it preforms a little better at that lower temp.

Either yeast would be a good choice. US-05 will probably be a little cleaner flavour, Nottingham is still an English yeast, even if it's very neutral.
