Just cracked open my first bottle of my Brewferm Abdij and I had pour it into 2 glasses and still loads of foam left in bottle. Lol

that looks like a lot of 'head' :)) maybe you just poured it out too fast? how did it turn out? how long did you leave it conditioning in bottles for?

Was it in the fridge and well settled?

It was in the fridge for about 5 hours before I opened. It had been conditioning in the bottle since early December. As soon as I opened the bottle and started to pour it seemed to be all foam. And then when the glass was "full" I put the bottle down and it kept oozing out. Like a wonderful looking volcano so to save it I grabbed another glass.

You could try leaving it in longer so it settles more. Hopefully it's just a one off (happens sometimes), if not you might need to pop them open, let some gas out and then recap.
