Serving Temperature?

What is your ideal serving temperature for kegged beer?

I have my fridge turned down as far as it will go before shutting off, and the internal temp is in the mid 30's.

I think the fridge is late 70's/early 80's model (original color was avacado, then painted brown by the previous owner..thank goodness for black appliance paint)

I have the freezer turned down as cold as it will go as well. Maybe once it starts warming up outside it will make a difference.

It tastes great out of the tap, but seems to be a little better towards the end of the glass once it has warmed up a few degrees.

I usually have my kegs around 38 to 40 degrees. Like you, I prefer my beer a little warmer than super cold.

Same as bottled beer-

Mid 50s for English Ales

Mid 40s for lagers.

Low 30s for fizzwateryechhh.

I like my beer ice cold. I know its not the best for some beers but its my preference.

My keg is in a room next to the garage, where it has been about 55 unrefrigerated. It's almost perfect. A few degrees cooler would be great, but I don't have a fridge to put it in yet.
