Has anyone successfully cultured the yeast from this Beer? Would like to try but im not sure if the same strain that is used for fermentation is used at bottling or another strain is added.
 
Thought I'd resurrect this thread as an answer wasn't provided and the link above just goes to the main page. I've got a bottle of Brooklyn Local 1 I'm drinking now - still nicely carbonated 24 hours after opening. Just wondering what the bottling yeast is and if I should save it for future use.
 
I do believe, but I'm not positive, that Brooklyn adds champagne yeast for bottle conditioning, so at best you'd be cultivating a mix of their house Belgian yeast and champagne yeast.
