Bottling: No Boil Lambic

Today was bottling day for the No Boil Lambic.  The gravity stayed steady at 1.002 for a month, so I decided to bottle it.  The sourness is quite assertive at this point.  While the Brett character is present, its one dimensional.  Just a strong cherry pie filling Brett flavor without much else.  In a traditional straight Lambic  there is little to no carbonation and a Gueuze is highly carbonated.  I primed half the bottles for high carbonation and half for low carbonation.
