WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE BEER?
FOAMY POUR
Glass arrives mostly head, beer never settles.
FLAT / UNDER-CARBONATED
Beer pours clear with little head and tastes lifeless.
OFF-FLAVOR / SOUR
Beer tastes buttery, vinegary, musty, or like wet cardboard.
WILD / SURGING POUR
Stream sputters, alternates foam and beer.
NO POUR / SLOW POUR
Faucet open, nothing (or a trickle) comes out.
CLOUDY / HAZY BEER
Clear-style beer pours hazy or with visible debris.
THE FOUR PILLARS OF GOOD DRAUGHT
Ninety percent of bad pours trace back to one of these four systems. Get them right and most problems disappear before they start.
TEMPERATURE
Cooler 36–38°F, glycol 28–30°F, beer at faucet under 40°F.
PRESSURE
Match applied PSI to the beer's volumes of CO₂ at serving temp.
BALANCE
Line length × resistance + rise should equal applied pressure.
CLEANLINESS
Caustic every 14 days, acid every 90, faucets torn down weekly.
