Draft System Problems

Beers are Foamy

Foamy, bad pouring beers can be caused by a number of things.

• Is only one beer pouring badly? Did you just change the keg?

  1. Wait, and see if it improves over time. Use a pitcher in the meantime.

  2. Check the gas.

  3. Try another keg.

  4. 86 the beer for the night.

  5. Ask Zach, Mark or Sam to put on a low-flow faucet.

• Are multiple beers pouring badly?

  1. Check the gas. This is most likely the problem.

  2. Wait a bit for the pressure to equalize after changing a tank.

  3. Send up a help flare! (Call Sam, Zach or Joe)
