Nottingham Yeast
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Nottingham or some english yeast might give you some nice esters that compliment the finish product
- Nottingham is so good! Especially, low 60s. Fast, good attenuation, and drops fairly quick.
- nottingham for ales.
- Nottingham is typically a pretty aggressive fermenter so I wouldn't mash any lower for that one.
- If you're already thinking about dry yeast, then why not Nottingham or London ESB. As long as you ferment them cold, their flavor will just bump up the malty-ness of your grain bill.
Cons
- Nottingham is tempting but know it’s not an authentic Kolsch yeast.

Notty takes a little longer [to taste better]
If you want a dry yeast for an Irish Red I would look into Nottingham or S04.
I use Nottingham all day long and ferment around 63-65. I’m lazy and this yeast is simply reliable. Just sprinkle a packet in top and it’ll be done in 4-5 days like clockwork.
Do something like Nottingham so they all drop all clean together.
