The Berliner will be fine either way if it was kettle soured and just had sacc in primary. For beers with Brett and bacteria you need to take a bit more care. If you bottle then use champagne bottles to lessen the risk of bottle bombs. If you keg then be prepared to dedicate a beer line and disconnects and probably tap to sours.

Edit - I do both. I bottle most of my sours in bottles but do have beer lines and tap dedicated to sours.

I find the best way to deal with sour beers is to dig a large hole down the back of the property & dump the entire fermenter with it's contents into it.

Douse the whole lot in petrol & chuck a match at it.

Once the fire goes out, back-fill the hole & mark it with hazard-tape for a few decades.
