I realize this is not strictly related to homebrewing but beer in general, but I haven't managed to find a proper answer and I suspect there are knowledgeable people here who can answer.
Example, I had a standard pour of Heineken from tap at a local bar. It formed lots of bubbles in the glass that rise from the bottom to the top and made it look very appetizing. I have a tasty crystal clear cream ale on tap at home, but no matter what serving pressure I use, it barely produces any bubbles in the glass, it looks flat, although there is a nice white head forming when pouring with normal pressure. Why is that? Why is there lots of bubbles forming in the glass in some cases with some beer, while there is pretty much nothing with others although they feel equally carbonated?
