Brown Ale with WPL060 instead of Windsor

I have a simple Brown Ale extract from Austin Homebrew supply that came with Windsor dry yeast. I decided it would be a great chance to create a yeast starter but I didn't get to brew within 24 or 48 hours. So I was thinking about washing and propagating the White Labs WPL060 that I have in the fridge instead of traveling out to the somewhat LHBS.

From what I've read the WPL060 is a fairly basic yeast and should be okay to use with an american brown ale recipe. However it never hurts to sample the deep knowledge pool here..

Thanks!

60 is my new fav. it used to be pacific ale i think that is 41. i have used 60 for everything from american wheat to my 12% barleywine. boss.

Great! I appreciate the reply. I'm going to wash the yeast tonight and use it sunday. I'll let you know how it turns out.
