If you're looking for a great British yeast, I'd go with Imperial "Pub", which is supposedly is Fuller's. That said, I'm quite a fan of London Pride.
Yeah I've heard great things about Pub and will probably order it for a Fuller's ESB clone.
I like wlp007 for AIPAs and have it on hand so will use it for this. First up is a Union Jack with wlp002 though.

WLP-002 is the yeast you see often for Stone clones. Another, though not "British", is WLP-090 Super San Diego is thought to be a 'super' Chico III varient allegedly to possibly be a house strain for Stone or Ballast Point.

I've used Pub in three beers in the past year, as well as 3 with WLP-090. As different as each is, I wouldn't hesitate to use either one in an AIPA.

Only saw this now 2.5 years later as I wanted to come back to this recipe because I finally got a load of Centennial that tastes like I remember it from 5 years ago. Glad I bagged a whole kilo of it.
The previous two orders I got were just too sharp citrus lemon/lime and took me ages to get through as supporting hops rather than the main hop.

Anyone progressed with the 2.0 recipe yet?
I also have some Azaca I want to use up.

Looks like Crusader1612 hasn't been active for a few years.

Thanks!
 
I made the original what seems like a zillion years ago. Seems to me adding Simcoe and Azacca makes this more like Pliny the Elder. Likely pretty tasty. Most of my current IPAs use Centennial, Citra and Simcoe with the occasional Azacca. Great hops.

I will give it a go with adding the Nugget, Azacca, Citra and Simcoe.
I just need to decide on the ratios.
