I am brewing the Calico Amber clone from CYBI, which calls for WLP007(Dry English Ale), so I ran to the LHBS to get what I needed. They pretty much only carry Wyeast and I didn't know what the equivalent was, so they gave me London ESB Ale, which is 1968. After getting back to work, I see that 1968 is essentially WLP002. My question is...will I really notice that much of a difference between the 2? I read that 007 attenuates lower than 002, but in an American Amber is it alright to leave some sweetness behind by keeping with the 002?
I can always run back tomorrow if need be, but I was wanting to get the starter going tonight for a Friday brew day.
