Don't know how I feel about the recipe but looks like a vigorous lacto fermentation. It's the same color as the krausen on my sour mashes.

Well the second response is more what I was thinking, but the first makes sense. It''s had yeast added at two points though so death confuses me, albeit maybe overexposure to bacteria? I was going to let it age a good while, should I just bottle now?

It doesn't look like it's ready for bottling. You can tell just by looking at how dense and cloudy it is there's a lot of activity still going on (unless you had just moved it a lot to take the picture). Bacteria, like yeast, will drop out when they stop feeding.
