Fluid not showing in final render

Question

I made a glass and have some fluid falling into it.

I applied the fluid, smoothed it out, re sized the glass, added some ice cubes....

The glass renders and so do the ice cubes... just not the fluid!

Here are some screenshots.

And a sample of the final render (also taken at low quality): enter image description here

could you post a .blend, there are so many things that could be causing that, and it will make it much easier for us to figure out — GiantCowFilms, Feb 23 '15 at 18:46
If you're not a fan of mediafire download from pasteall: http://pasteall.org/blend/34619 — BrennanM, Feb 23 '15 at 18:52

You need to enable rendering in the outliner

@BrennanM Mine and GiantCowFilms' were equally correct, and he posted his only seconds before I posted mine. :) – Feb 23 '15 at 19:06
yup. Saw yours first, was about to mark it correct, and then gave the points to the first posted. Thank you so much for helping me in a time of facepalm though! – BrennanM Feb 23 '15 at 19:13

@BrennanM I'm here both to help and be helped. Rep points are appreciated, but not my ultimate goal. A happy customer is more important. And I upvoted the other answer, so no hard feelings. :) – Feb 23 '15 at 19:17
