I have a few sours going with various house blends. I have a keg only comp/festival in a little over a week and would like to blend a keg of a few of them for ot. I have dialed in the blend I want in a glass (2/3 of x beer, 1/6 of y beer, and 1/6 of z beer). Is there any good way to get this mix in a keg without throwing the whole keg out of balance? If there is too little or too much of z beer the blend seems out of balance to me. Any hints or ideas about how I can get this right?

Do you need a full keg? If not, you could do 2 gallons of x, 2 quarts of y and then add z to taste. Or 3 gallons of x, 3 quarts of y and add z to taste.Also, I think your avatar is a little risque for the Beer forum. Please change it.

Do it by weight. It’s pretty easy in metric — one liter of beer weights about a kilogram (slightly more, but close enough). So four kilos of x-beer, a kilo of y-beer an a kilo of z-beer will get you six liters of your blend.

Thanks that seems like the best option
