Driftwood6 (214), USA Apr 13, 2007 Thought it was ok in bottle. But tasted very nice on tap at the 3F brewpub. I’m very picky about wheat beers-- and this is one of the few I like. Maybe because it has the typical 3F hop profile. jameswolfe (141), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Mar 30, 2007 The worst FFF beer Ive ever had. But that aint a bad thing cause FFF rules. A nice light gold color with lots of citrus aroma and taste. Not as creamy as I’d like, but a great example of a wheat beer as you will find. ScoWRee (275), Phila, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 26, 2007 Pours a golden color with a nice white foamy head. Aroma of hops, fruit and wheat. Nice balance. A touch of bitterness in the finish. Very nice. A solid beer. DrHomolka (726), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 25, 2007 Updated: Aug 13, 200722oz. Pours a translucent golden color with an airy white head that shortens quickly. Some nice lacing. Aroma is light fruit, citrus, tiny bit of hops, lemons, some candy. As it warms a small amount of wheat and cereal is present in the smell. Taste is surprisingly light with a nice touch of subtle hops. Incredibly smooth and easy to drink. A little bit more flavor would be nice. The citrusy hops is a nice touch though I crave a bit more wheat character, which I hardly detected at all. Very mild compared to Three Floyd’s other stuff.
Re-rate: The bomber I had before was a year old when I drank it, I have now discovered. Drinking this fresh on tap was a completely different experience. Huge hop aroma and flavor. Very tasty. A great combo of hoppiness and drinkability. Definitely the best beer in its class. hopson (591), Williamsville, New York, USA Mar 23, 2007 22 oz from Ty5592, Another strong offering from Three Floyds, nice amber gold color,not too much in the way of aroma, but a great, crisp slightly bitter lemony wheat...Just a hint of bitterness, as opposed to the other overly hopped brews from Three Floyds (which I love). My wife even liked it...That’s saying something, because she does not like anything. alexanderj (2213), Chino Hills, California, USA Mar 22, 2007 Bottle brought back from Chicago. Aroma of wheat, floral and citrus hops, some yeast. Flavor was very good for such a low alcohol content; good session possibilities. Very easy drinking; drank it probably too fast. Flavors of lemon, citrus/floral hops, some rye-like flavor, and wheat. No doubt a top version of the style. golubj (1275), Sunnyvale, California, USA Mar 22, 2007 Bottle. Aroma of citrus/floral hops, grain, and spice. Palate is smooth. Flavor is of grain and hops, lemony finish. Pretty good for a wheat beer, but almost tastes like a pale ale. Duster72 (117), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Mar 19, 2007 Taste is outstanding. Great mix of fruit, wheat, and hops. More refreshing than most wheats. Hops give a very nice finish. Not as cloying as some wheats. Exceptional drinkability -- the 22oz bomber left me wanting another, and if I had one on hand, I would have had another.
