Three Floyds Gumballhead

Brewed by Three Floyds Brewing Company
Style: Wheat Ale
Munster, Indiana USA

Thin, white head quickly disapates to none at all. Slightly hazy. An original wheat. Hops dominate the aroma and flavor while strong lemon-grapefruit notes balanced by a malty uncurrent. This delicious brew finishes with the flavor of sweetened grapefuit zest. A very crisp, refreshing summer beer.

Like no wheat I’ve had. Lacking all those traditional flavors. Refreshing is a good adjective. It is light. Like a straight up ale. I like how 3F messes with the concept of a wheat here.

A great light beer with a citrus hop taste. A lighter taste that’s not overpowering but still has the typical hop FFF taste. Very refreshing, very light. A bright yellow appearance, mildly hazy.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with yem25. Pours a very hazy yellow gold with a moderate white head that quickly faded to a film and left virtually no lace. Strong aroma of pine along with some banana and lemon notes. The flavor is a bit of a disappointment. Heavily herbal with some pine as well. There is no lemon, banana or wheat for that matter. More bitter at the finish than I was expecting too. An interesting beer, but not what I would choose for an everyday wheat beer.

bottle, hell yes!! a beauty of a golden color with a very small white head. aroma is hop heaven and maybe some fruit, banana or apple? flavor is wovenly so beautifully between citrus hops and malt. flavor is just so damn juicy. i could drink this all day every day if i had to. wow.

Crystal clear deep golden hue with a thin white head. Aroma is all hops, and nothing but the hops! Big amarillo citrus punch in the nose. Flavor is decidedly delicious. Big malty backbone - almost rich honey flavors - thn a big lemon zest fresh citrus finish - but not tart. A fine beer - well balanced while stilll giving us a great amarillo profile.

Bottle. The pour is straw colored and so clear you can read a newspaper through your pint glass. (What a nerdy coatings chemist like myself might call a "10 haze".) The thin white head is not long for this world, but leaves behind thin lacing on the glass. Nose is grass and bubblegum with a surprising amount of citrus hop aroma. Taste follows that template, and ends with a crisp, slightly bitter finish. Easily one of the most refreshing, drinkable summer beers available.

Straw-colored with a fine white head. Powerful aroma of banana, bubblegum, and spice. Lively and spicy on the palate. Leads to a very tasty wheat beer. Malt, yeast, bubblegum, and pepper. Slightly bitter aftertaste. A delicious wheat beer.
