Like this:
If I'm not drinking through that crema, when having an espresso (or cappuccino), and it sticking to the sides of the cup making rings around the sides, as it's being drunk, like the head on pint of beer does on the accompanying glass, then I won't really enjoy it.
And the denser and thicker, more yellowy brown the crema, the better!

Here is a shot pulled from the single basket (which is apparently more difficult to use due to the shape and the way it extracts etc.).
And as you can see from the photo below, the crema sticks to the side when you swirl it around a bit.
And here is the shot of the "Guinness" in better quality to give you an idea about the thickness etc.
