This is a super helpful post that I use often to balance my draft system.

Thanks, AF. That is very helpful (after math equations started to come back to me). I think my temperature, pour height from keg and cold beer glasses are affecting the foam too. The kegerator temp is variable the way it is designed, but the beer probably stays mostly around 40 degrees. I wish I could make it a little colder. I will try some adjustments. I use 3/16 line.

40f is best for that beer to be honest. Once you get it dialed in you should be able to pour beautiful pints of beer!!
Tonight's selection. Day 1 of vacation on the jersey shore.

Is your tap tower cooled also? that definitely can effect the foam.
i've found my keg lines have made no difference. Its normally temperature and pressure.
But agreed. Once its dialed in.... hmmmmm delicious!! i don't mind a slower pour either if it helps to alleviate the foaming.

Day 2 at the beach. The beer's view of the ocean too.
I think you nailed it. The tower isn't cooled. I did add some insulation around the beer line. The problem now is the first few seconds are a little foamy and then it's fine. If you pour a second beer right after the first, no issue. It seems pretty balanced now.

Tonight's selection. I thought it was something different. Liquor stores on the beach have a terrible selection, unless you like bud light.

Its a big beer but what better way to celebrate the British so generously letting the Yanks have their Independence.
Like giving the keys to a Corvette to a teenager. ( Just kidding guys. I love this place)

I'm a HUGE Treehouse fan but not a big fan of their red ale or Mosaic-heavy beers like Bright. Very Hazy and Haze are great dank bombs. Julius variants and Green are also amazingly good.

For what it's worth, the British lost to a bunch of farmers and the French. And they had the Hessians helping them. I would've set the like at +1200 US Continental Army.
Trillium has cans now - Congress Street IPA in a can is faaaaaantastic.

Had this after golf with a friend Saturday. Second time I've had one, and it's hands down the best beer I've ever had.
Triple IPA, chewy as fuck, juice bomb of a beer and the alcohol content isn't overpowering at all - you would never, ever guess it's 10.3% ALC.

hmmmmm. I think i must now have that beer, I have now move Sip of Sunshine way down the list, same with Heady Topper. Great beers but with everything else going on now they are struggling to compete with the beers from Treehouse or Trillium. Even Epiphany from Foundation is better than Heady (my opinion).
Also another brewery to watch out for is Night Shift. Had their latest Morph.. very very good. And their '87' is fantastic.
Now back to trillium.... Absolutely loving their beers. Fortunate enough the local Craft Beer Cellar is getting limited amounts of it so i don't have to travel too far. Wont be getting cans for another 2 weeks though, no idea why.
But a client/ friend was down at the brewery and brought back a 4 pack. I agree. FANTASTIC stuff.
Picked this one up from the local store... will open it soon
Tried this one last week. Very tasty. Reminded me of Mott the Lesser.

FWIW, I've been hammering back Pacificos with limes this summer. Refreshing!

I love Pacifico in the summer! By far my favorite Mexican Beer! My favorite Mexican restaurants here have it on tap!
