  -> Thank you. Even though the text refers to "beer" already, "beer head" is not wrong. In a way, it sets the reader's schema for what's coming ahead in the text. The choice between the two is entirely subjective.

head


Explanation:
colarinho => head

Beer head (also head or collar), is the frothy foam on top of beer which is produced by bubbles of gas, predominantly carbon dioxide, rising to the surface. The elements that produce the head are wort protein, yeast and hop residue. The carbon dioxide that forms the bubbles in the head is produced during fermentation.
