I believe your question was supposed to be bottle or toss? Did you taste it yet? If it is perfectly fine, then it is perfectly fine to bottle.

^that.

I'm assuming it looks fine...no pellicle or anything? If there is a pellicle, I would have to guess you're gonna get the advice to let it sit for another year or so for a nice sour.

Banana or orange. See I can do it too!

Take a sample if it tastes ok bottle it and you will need to add fresh/new yeast to carb it. All the yeast will have dropped out by now and more then likely be dead.

Banana. He should zest the banana and add that to each bottle.

Depends. Was it sitting on the yeast the whole time?

Yup it's likely fine. I kegged a beer that sat on the yeast for 7+ months and it was great. The hop aroma had faded, but it was still tasty.

Okay, tasted it and it was okay. Botlled it and it sat for just over a week. Good bubbles and pretty good on the pallet. Im going to let the rest of the case (20 bottles) sit for a month.
