Three Floyds Gumballhead

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

Beautiful hazy orange in color with a minimal, bubbly white head. Aroma is very crisp; hoppy, pine, grass and honey. Taste is very good and refreshing, initially seeming like a Belgian Wit crossed with an American IPA. Pineapples and oranges really come out. Some hints at vanilla and amarillo, transitioning taste to resemble something similar to the sweetness of strawberry Pop Tart frosting. Body is a little thin, but perfect for a summer quaff. Highly hopped and carbonated, but the malts play a good supporting role. Finish is bitter sweet. Summer beer? - hell yes it is. Matches the season perfectly. Thanks for the extra bottle, MrFacto!

Thanks to iowaherkeye for this one. Light amber, fairly large head, decent lacing. Aroma is very hoppy... mostly citrusy grapefruity hops. It doesn’t look or smell like any American Wheat I’ve had.. but ok? Some wheatyness in the finish... very slight. More like an APA with some tartness in the end. Yeah, it’s tasty... but dunno about the style here.

I’ll sum this up at the start; I could drink this brew every day, all summer long. Low abv+great taste=all day drinking ! The gumballhead has an orange yellow color with a quickly fading white head. Great, intense fresh floral hop smell. Light medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Great taste mimics the smell with big hop flavors followed by a malty, grainy sweetness to finish. Excellent beer here.

Wow an American Wheat that DOESNT suck! Well this one doesnt seem to be true to style which is good. The aroma is lemons, bananas, freshly baked bread, and perfume. A yellowish orange appearance. A definite lemon and bubblegum presence but I also taste some peaches and apricots. It almost seems like an IPA and wheat blend. This lawnmower beer kicks ass. I feel like I need a lawnmower with a V8 engine and a bumpin system for this beer. Woohaa! Thanks Heemer!

22oz Bomber @ Coles. Buffalo, NY. Extremely hopped up Pilsner. Not your typical wheat. Very similar to prima Pils in the hop sense. Very enjoyable & love the label & tshirts

bottle, pours a hazy golden color with a fat fluffy white head. sweet floral aroma that is very hoppy. very sweet wheaty taste with a nice tart hop balance. a touch of fruity banana flavor lingers at finish with a sweet candy flavor. I didn’t expect such hoppiness from this, but it is enjoyable.

Thanks to Miketd for the 22oz bottle! Excellent session beer for the hot and humid weather in NC. Pours gold with light head and organic honeycomb patterned lacing! Amarillo hops up front wheat on the back. Faint gum aroma/flavor.

Pours a slightly hazy gold with a white head. Nose is grapefruit, wheat, lemon rind, hops. Flavor is somewhat hoppy, citrus and light wheat. Really an interesting beer, seems like a cross between an IPA and a wheat. Nice!
