Sanitary conditions of a tapped keg?

[Castle Meadow Brewery]

My thirsty brother got into a keg of Belgian that was conditioning in the back of my fridge and pulled a couple of pints off it. What do I do? I thought of racking it back to another keg but since its carbonated I might get a foamy mess. Or should I carefully remove the out valve on the corny and sanitize it?

Don't do anything to it. If he tapped it the normal way a keg is supposed to (meaning he didn't just open the lid and scoop some liquid out) why would you be concerned with sanitation again? They're called 'out' poppets for a reason

I agree. I really don't see why you would be worried if he just dispensed some beer in the proper manner, it's what the keg is made to do!

Just sanitize the post and quick disconnect prior to using again...
