BEER CONDITION: CLOUDY BEER: 
The beer in the glass appears hazy and not clear. 

Excessively low temperatures may cause hazy or cloudy beer, particularly when the beer 
lies in the cold coil for long periods of time. 

*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 a corrugated metal 
 
*Rinse the glasses in fresh cold water just before serving beer. It is best to serve beer in a 
  wet glass. 

      Improper drawing of beer into glass 

Open the faucet quickly and completely; proper foam should be a tight creamy head. The 
collar on the average glass should be ¾” to 1” high. Beer drawn without head has the 
appearance of being flat 

      Not enough pressure 

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 CO2 regulator 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. 
 
BEER CONDITION: OFF TASTE BEER 
Often bitter and bity; sometimes completely lacking flavor and zest. It may also have an 
oily or foul odor which may carry an unpleasant taste.
