Any experience with Danstar's London ESB yeast?

I know this is a relatively new yeast but I wanted to get some feedback. First of all, would it make a good yeast for a porter? Second of all, it says that it is a low attenuating yeast, probably to keep FG slightly high for more residual sugars.

If this doesn't make a good porter yeast, what would you recommend?

I'll bet it's good in a porter. Just keep in mind, as you know, that FG will be very high around 1.020 or whatever.

Never brewed a porter before so I want to try my hand at one. Maybe I should look for a recipe that is intended to finish at around 1.020.

There's an extensive thread about it here:
