beer won't clear
Recently attempted my first brew a 36 pint woodefords nelson's revenge.It was transferred to the keg exactly 4 weeks ago and although it tastes great it is still not clear,and am always reluctant to drink cloudy beer.

Re: beer won't clear
Woodforde's/Munton's kits are well known to have problems with clearing and/or fermenting correctly, as you'll discover if you check through the various forums.
Did you add finings after primary fermentation was complete? If so, can you add a second dose of the finings used? Did you remember to prime the keg with the required amount of sugar before filling it? Just a few points but, the problem is quite likely to be the old Woodforde's/Munton's one.
Give it another few weeks to see if it clears any more. If the beer smells and tastes good, you can drink it.

My Nelson's Revenge took a lot longer to clear than the Admiral's Reserve and Wherry.2thumbs wrote:Recently attempted my first brew a 36 pint woodefords nelson's revenge.It was transferred to the keg exactly 4 weeks ago and although it tastes great it is still not clear,and am always reluctant to drink cloudy beer.
I would suggest you leave it for a further 4 weeks.
You will be rewarded.
