More foam than beer

[chojo]

Hi guys, well i got my leaky tap sorted and the brew has sat in the warm to carbonate and today it went out to the shed to condition in the cool. Before i moved it i thought i'd draw a bit off to see how it's doing and got a lovely glass of foam! I left it to settle and got about an inch of beer from half a pint. Tried again and got the same thing. So is this something that will calm down over time or have i used to much sugar to prime it.
It's a Hambleton Bard bitter and i used 70g of sugar for 23 ltrs. The beer itself isn't fizzy just very lively.

everything you have done is probably fine , it's the crap taps .So you either get a dalex tap or get some tubing to go on the end of the tap you have and that will help .

has you keg got p pressure release valve if so try releasing some gas out then try pouring another

Give it some time in the cold, the pressure will be high until some of the co2 is absorb. Give it a week or two then try again.

A week in the cool will sort it. Though you may still get a substential head. If you do, just pour as slowly as possible. once you've drawn a pint or two off it will settle until about half-way down the barrel. Then you'll need a shot of CO2 to get it out, though it will still be fine to drink.
