beer head
Pint's white top
Beer head is the layer of foam that forms on top of a freshly poured beer, created by carbonation and proteins in the brew.
A good head is prized for its appearance and for releasing aromatic compounds: This stout has a thick, creamy head.
Head retention—how long the foam lasts—is a mark of quality in many beer styles.
