Natural Carbonation in a Corney keg

[Swoosh]

I am trying kegging for the first time. I recently moved the beer from the secondary into the corney keg but I was wondering if I ever needed to release the pressure? I think I have heard some of you say that you age your beer in your keg's but I couldn't remember anyone stating if there was any maintenance involved. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, does anyone have any suggestions on a good holiday beer?

thanks,

Hey Andrew, no, you will never need to release the pressure. You will want to keep a positive pressure in the keg so it will seal shut and keep all the nasties out the fruits of your labor.

Sorry, but I don't have any good holiday beer suggestions, you'll have to wait for someone else to pipe in on that.
