Thanks. That's too bad. I wonder why they're not finding an alternative.
For a novice like myself, should I just google yeast substitutes (which I've done) and find an alternative or is there a better resource somewhere? I'm doing two english dark milds next (assuming they can find a fix for my problem). I had planned on using WLP002 (from the google search) but if there's a dry alternative that would work well, probably a little easier (my LHBS is about 45 minutes away). Thanks again for all of the help.
The English beers ship with S04 dry yeast. Just be sure to pitch 1 tsp which is plenty.
