POOR QUALITY BEER
PROBLEM
Cloudy Beer.
The beer in the glass
appears hazy, and not clear.
Flat Beer.
Beer lacks its usual brewery-
fresh flavor. The foamy head
disappears quickly.
When dispensing beer into the glass, if you find that the beer is Cloudy, Flat, Bubbly, Off-Taste,
Sour, Wild or Tail-End Beer, refer to some of the following hints.
CAUSE
• Excessively low temperatures
may cause hazy or cloudy
beer, particularly when the
beer lies in the cold coil for
long periods of time.
• The beer faucet was only
opened partially.
• The glass is greasy.
• Improper drawing of beer into
the glass.
• Not enough pressure.
CORRECTION
• Make certain that the lines are thoroughly cleaned
and then raise the temperature slightly.
• Open the faucet quickly and completely.
• Replace any worn washers and parts in the
faucet when necessary to allow the faucet to be
fully opened.
• Do not wash beer glasses together with glasses that
have contained milk or any other fatty substance.
An excessive amount of germicide build-up may
also leave a fatty film, which will cause beer to go
flat.
• It is preferable to steam and sterilize glasses where
health laws permit.
• Wash glasses thoroughly with a good detergent to
remove all fatty substances (i.e. lipstick).
• Do not use soap.
• Do not wipe the glasses dry. Permit glasses to air-
dry by placing them on a wire rack or on corru-
gated metal.
• Rinse the glasses in fresh cold water just before
serving beer. It is best to serve beer in a wet glass.
• Open the faucet quickly and completely.
• Proper foam should be a tight creamy head. The
collar on the average glass should be 3/4" to 1"
high. Beer drawn without head has the appearance
of being flat.
• Increase the pressure if beer runs too slowly. The
correct flow should fill a 10oz. glass in 4 seconds.
(Approx. 8oz. of liquid)
• Check the pressure source to determine whether
there are obstructions in the air line.
• Replace a sluggish air source or the CO
and gauge.
• The tank pressure must always be higher than the
pressure used on the keg.
• Always apply pressure to the keg before drawing
beer.
