DUer NewHendoLib would be a great person to ask, as he has bred a bunch of the varieties.

I personally love Wild Fred and Dwarf Big Green, both beefsteak sized tomatoes on a dwarf plant. I am not sure about the acidity, but I bet our tomato guru knows....

(Victory Seeds is where I've bought most of my dwarf tomato seeds)
