Substitute for Wyeast 1335?

[bob_t]

Ordered the Surly Furious Pro Series kit while the sale was on, but NB was “out of stock” of the Surly recommended Wyeast 1335 British Ale II.
Is there a decent substitute for this yeast? I can go either with a dry yeast or make a starter, so that’s not an issue.
Or should I just wait for the right thing?

Thanks!

WLP007 might be a good choice, or Safale-04.

A note on yeast: Surly uses White Labs WLP007 Dry English Ale; with Surly’s blessing, we have included Wyeast 1335 as the default option so customers (especially mail order customers) can more easily evaluate viability before brewing.

WLP007 is the way to go.

If your set on Wyeast though WY1098 is the Wyeast version of WLP007
