I have verified internally that foam is rendering with Maya 2019 and the latest Arnold.
We do have an outstanding issue (reference BIFROST-3389) where creating foam no longer is assigned a aiStandardVolume so the user will have to set that up manually.
It looks like you are already doing this though. Would you be able to provide an example scene so we can take a look?

I have Bifrost 2.0 installed, so I had to do this:
// File read in 6.6 seconds.
// Warning: Bifrost: to use the updated Bifrost graphs in Maya, graph |bifrostLiquid1|bifrostLiquidContainer1 needs to be updated to the latest version, call mel script: replaceBifrostFXGraphsWithFactoryGraphs |bifrostLiquid1|bifrostLiquidContainer1 ; //
Then disconnect all the Standard Surfaces from the SG on foamShape1, leaving just the Standard Volume.

To expand on Stephen's findings, it looks like the scene file attached was made in an older Maya. In order to update the bifrost nodes, you will need to invoke the (replaceBifrostFXGraphsWithFactoryGraphs |bifrostLiquid1|bifrostLiquidContainer1;) script first. This script does not update the shader connection and you may need to recreate the aiVolume shader and assign it to the foam.
