On parle d'une bière...
It pours with a rocky head, and has a Styrian hop aroma and flavour that is hard to match anywhere. It has a smooth, soft, lightly nutty, malt background, a hint of sweet orange, and a firm bitterness. The beer is heavily dry-hoppped, with blossoms, and warm-conditioned in a circulating system

elle forme une haute mousse dans le verre
Le terme Rocky head (Haute mousse, hauts kraüsen) concerne normalement une étape dans le procédé de fabrication de la bière. Ici, il doit simplement simplement signifier que cette bière forme une mousse élevée dans le verre.

Tony M
: I'm not sure your extrapolation works; to me, 'rocky' would suggest 'firm' (like the 'stiff peaks' stage when whipping egg whites), as distinct from smooth and creamy (cf. Guinness!) / I don't have T, but I think it's a brewing term specifically
