It's sour. Tasting good. It's got a pellicle now, just showed up about a month ago.
So I don't have Belgian style glass bottles, can I use regular glass? I plan to Keg and force carbonate, but I would like to bottle it.

Unless you're sterile filtering, there's still going to be some cells in there, but if you're only carbing in the 2 - 2.5 range & keeping it cool (40's), provided you got a solid FG, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I probably wouldn't want to sit on those bottles much more than maybe a year to be on the safe side... or at least isolate them so in a worst case scenario they don't take out anything else in the cellar.

You'll probably be fine though. It would take it quite a bit to get past the shattering point of standard glass starting at a forced carb 2.5 or under.
