So I pulled something that I had never done before. I naturally carbed a keg (as I often do) and put it on tap after a week. It wasn't fully carb'd...It tastes too sweet now.


Can I pull it off tap, let it come to room temp, and re-yeast it to get it to eat up the residual sugar? The beer is ~6% brown ale. Its been ~45deg for about 2 weeks now.
 
What temp were you carbing at? After a week the yeasties should have ate the small amount of sugar you added to prime.

If for some reason they didnt, unless it's reached freezing temps, the yeast should wake up if exposed to carbing temps again.
 
k...i left it at room temp for a week, then 45 for the last week and a day or two. It hasn't been at/below freezing.
