I know this topic has come up a zillion times, but I have a particular question..

Scenario, I have a force carbonated keg, when I transferred from primary (I dry hop in primary to avoid O2 issues) I got some dry hop materials in keg. When I tried to pour, it was clogged so I kicked up the pressure and sure enough, dry hops came flying through. Well, it is pouring now, but I still get lots of foam. I have a feeling the out line may have gunk in it, but before I dismantle, I also wanted to mention that I pour, then the beer line creats a section with air in it rather than the standard solid liquid. What is the cause of this?

Is is possible the line is clogged still, or the out line isn't tightened? I am at work now so don't have the opportubity to check...
 
Sounds like the line is clogged or the pick up tube or debris in the QD, possibly the tap as well. Bummer, time to take it all apart and clean it out:(
