I'm confused as to which yeast to use for an Irish Red that I'm going to start on next weekend. The MWS lists 1056 American Ale yeast as the Wyeast option, while AHS lists the traditional 1084 Irish Red Wyeast option.
Why does MWS list 1056? I'm sure I could get them to substitute but just curious what the different strains will produce in an Irish Red.
Any thoughts on the overall makeup of either of these kits as far as ingredients go?
