Unfortunately, I'm only talking about one of my beers
My winter warmer is out of control. I've brewed a number of different beers and haven't had any odd carbonation issues. When I pour a bottle the beer instantly turns to foam the second it touches the glass. It doesn't foam out of the bottle or gush out when opened, only when poured. I've tried to pour it super slow and just trickle it down the side of the glass but it doesn't help.
So, it either takes me a half hour to pour a bottle and let the foam settle, or I end up losing half the beer to foam or have to suck the foam up. Either way, this sucks because the beer is otherwise delicious. If you get past all the foam it seems otherwise carbonated perfectly. Not flat and not super carbed.
Some vitals on the beer:
OG - 1.078
FG - 1.016 (both were exactly within the target range)
Sat in primary for a month. Got to 1.016 there, and moved to secondary for 2 more months. Then I bottled and they have been in bottles for about 11 weeks. When I bottled I used 4.5 oz priming sugar.
I've been sampling a bottle here and there over the past month or so and they all behave the same way. I've also had a few that were in the fridge for weeks prior to opening and it was the same as a bottle that just spent a few days in the fridge.
I'm just a little stumped and a bit annoyed. Any ideas?
