It's Miller lite. It is watered down before it leaves the brewery. Otherwise, I think you're crazy

Something else while it's on my mind it tastes as if it has more carbonation in it than it should but when poured it has about a 1" head on it which I would consider perfect. I have my co2 set on 11 psi is it possible it is overcarbonated? I've had the keg close to 2 months now and it still has about a 1/4 left in it. Any thoughts.....
Would need to know the liquid temperature of the beer to determine the correct psi setting. Doubtful you're overcarbonating at 11. And how in the world do you get a keg to last 2 months and STILL have a 1/4 left?

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery
and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might
be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself,
"It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver."
