Well, so this is my situation, and I came to you for advice.
Two years ago I brewed a lambic with Wyeast 3278 Belgian Lambic Blend. My plan was to brew another one the next year and so on, but many things happened and it wasn't possible.
Now for me it's impossible to get more of that yeast, so I'm quite insecure of what to do next. I was thinking in some options:

B.2) Bottle it, blended with fresh belgian ale, to have something similar to an oude gueuze.
