General Recommendations for Off-Taste Beer:

Beer lines should be flushed after each keg is emptied. Maintain fresh, clean,

sanitary conditions around the dispenser. Smoke, cooking odors and disinfectants

will harm the taste and flavor of beer. These conditions, as described, may come

from an air source or from actual contact with the glass when drawing beer.
