I've cooled the WB-06 to 3C for its conditioning phase. I was a little concerned that it may not have carbonated, so I applied what seemed like a picojoule of energy on the pressure release valve and it wanted to take off like a rocket! No problems there then.
I also transferred the WLP-570 from lagering into a keg and primed with the requisite amount of dextrose and priming yeast. I have to say, it smelled right on the money as far as pear/lemon esters go, very reminiscent of Duvel. I can't recall the WB-06 having the same aroma when kegging, but I couldn't really smell a lot back then so I will won't draw any conclusions just yet.
The WLP-570 will be 2-3 weeks behind the WB-06, so all going well I should be tasting mid-late February.
