I drained the bottle last night and then filled it with more starter wort. This morning I whirled it and the foil was giving off a hissing noise and foaming quite a bit. Gentlemen, I have a Yellow Rose yeast culture. :)

I think I'm going to do a five gallon batch in the spirit of something like this along with a few other recipes that I've found tomorrow. I have some loose citra, and some Magnum and Cascade pellets in the freezer so I'm building around that. I want to play up "honey" and "grapefruit" more...
