What, and there isn't crap floating around the bottom of the keg?
Know your beer. Love your beer. Accept it as the yeast gods intended.
Of course theres crap floating at the bottom of the keg but I dont drink down to the bottom of a keg. I do however drink to the bottom of a bottle.

On tap = no floating shit in my beer

Bottle = lots of floating shit in my beer

Mac and Jack's african amber. It's a micro out of the seattle area. I can't get it here in New Orleans and I hate the whole situation.

Doesn't it say to pour into a glass? Can't remember if it was Blue Moon or some other wheat beer, but one of them specifically says to do that. The reason: so you don't have a bunch of crap at the bottom of the beer. If you pour it into a glass, it mixes it back up and gives it the consistent texture/flavor throughout.
Yes pouring in a glass helps.

Im not saying theres anything wrong with it, im just saying I dont personally like it. I dont like pulp in my OJ and I dont like crap floating in my beer. Getting Blue Moon from the tap helps avoid that, thus making the beer more enjoyable (for me)

I have a new favorite beer that I just found recently. Its only $16 for a case of bottle Lionshead. Brewed at Lions brewery in Wilkes Barre, PA. Its a delicious "deluxe pilsner".

Others I always fall back on:
Miller Light
Blue Moon
New Castle
Sam Adams Light, White Ale, Oktoberfest
Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA

If I remember correctly you are refering to Widmer Hef.

I love Odouls. We always get crazy drunk after a few drinks!

I just meant that Widmer has the pouring instructions. Something along the lines of pour 75% of the beer into a pint glass at an angle. Then swirl bottle to release the goodness and pour straight down in to glass.
