What has a dark body and a light head?
Beer! The head on a glass of beer is a different color than the body, and yet the chemical make-up is the same. Why?
Pour a glass of beer, and the body will be a dark, rich color. It's a color that's warm, and inviting. It promises to make you forget about all the troubles you have . . . for a little while. Just a little while. The color is the result of the way light interacts with the composition of the beer. The molecules of beer absorb some wavelengths of light, and let other wavelengths through to your eye.
