I have an upcoming brew that calls for WLP545 (Ardennes) but have 530 (Abbey) on hand.

How significantly different would the beer turn out if I were to use 530 instead of 545? Really noticeable or ...?
 
I believe the 530 is more fruity notes where as the 545 is more spice. I'm just going off of what I've read. Someone just sent me a link to TheYeastbay.com I'm looking into that one. I'm about to brew The #8 which calls for 540, but was going to use maybe 545. But the yeast bay looks intriguing.
