DOH! That wasn't supposed to be a question....I just type worse than usual when I use my iPad!

I've used both and the only reason I like Wyeast over White Labs is because Wyeast doesn't fizz up when I open. Wyeast is just easier to work with in my opinion.

Hmmm... .25 cents extra times ten vials = 2.50 for a vial of yeast down the road. This thrifty Scot might be changing his tune.

I could have sworn it used to be 5 vials and not 10 to get a free one. I was all ready for a freebie.

After hearing people get good results with Nottingham I tried it in a round of beers lately, and I was pretty underwhelmed. It *worked*, it made beer and was easy to use, but it didn't have the nice mix of subtlety and complexity that I expect from an English strain. It did give some nice flavors on aging, but it's not quite there.
US05 is the only dry yeast I've used that holds a candle to wet yeast. That said, I mainly keep it around now as a backup.
