I all started so innocently

[InTheBasement]

It was Friday night. The start of a nice weekend, and I decided to transfer my beer to kegs. I knew that one of those kegs had a bad seal on the output post and under pressure my beer would spray out. I had a keg that recently went empty and I figured I would use that post on the keg I was about to fill. So I got the wrench, and loosened that post, and realized at that point that there was pressure in that keg. There was also the dregs of my stout in that keg. The stout dregs began spraying everywhere. Needless to say, I spent a fair amount of this Saturday morning cleaning the basement and all that was around the spray area.

LOL! Reminds me of the time I accidently emptied a 3 gallon keg on our tv room floor.

So funny.......well not at the time.

I moved a couple of years ago and found a case of beer that I had no idea what it was so standing in my garage I cracked a bottle open, it was quite over carbed and as I tried to put my thumb over the top it sprayed all over the walls, ceiling and door to the basement. It was some sort of dark beer (it was actually quite tasty) and I was cleaning random spots for the next 2 years.

Something that should take only a few minutes ends up taking so long. Thanks for sharing.

I hate to mention it but you missed some.

Went to switch out the cheap faucet that came with my kegerator with a nice new Intertap flow control. I shut off the gas on my CO2 bottle and then proceeded to remove the faucet, forgetting that there is still a fair amount of pressure in the keg. Got a nice beer shower and my kitchen got a good cleaning that day.
