Default London Ale Yeast vs British Whitbread Ale Yeast for brown ale
I'm new into home brewing and about to start my first brown ale but I'm trying to decide between London ale yeast and British Whitbread Ale yeast - anyone have any suggestions??

btw here's what I'm working with:

7lbs Liquid Pale Malt extract
.25 lb biscuit
.5 lb crystal 60
.25 lb chocolate
.12lb roasted barley

1 oz Challenger - 60min
1 oz Goldings - 0 min

Whirfloc 15 min.

Recipe looks fine, though I would wholly recommend using the London Ale yeast. It makes a killer English-style brown and is one of my favorites for the style.
