There’s Too Much Resistance in the Beer Line If your beer is pouring slow and flat, the issue is most likely in the line. Lines that are too long or too thin, or both, will slow the flow of beer down too much, and knock too much co2 out of solution before it reaches the tap.

What is the flow rate of beer?
Constant and uniform pressure is needed while the beer is on tap to maintain this natural carbonation. At 38ºF, the internal pressure of a keg is 12 to 14 pounds per square inch (psi). An ideal flow rate is about 2 ounces per second.
How does a beer faucet work?
When you open the tap/faucet, beer flows out of the keg and into your glass due to a push from the CO2. The gas then fills the space where the beer was formerly housed, and that’s the “head space.” The CO2 fills the head space and maintains the pressure inside of the keg at the PSI set on your CO2 regulator.
