Three Floyds Gumballhead

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

Bright golden; bleached-white head; nice lace. Mouthfeel was decent; maybe a little on the light side, which I expected. Wafty hop aromas throughout. Really nice notes of grass, pine and green hops. Malts were lightish, wheaty and bready. Very enjoyable beer, style guidelines aside.

Wow!!! This is wheat beer? Aroma is very hoppy, delightfully so, but rather different for the style. Beer pours dark golden with a not real big off white head that is retained and has nice lacing. There is a lot happening in the flavor department with this one. Initial flavor is purely hoppy, but then the beer broadens and you notice the wheat flavor. There is also a nice dry spicy finish. Not very style specific, but excellent beer nonetheless.

This was unusual. I did taste and smell things described on here like the leathery grassy taste that I used to think was peoples imaginations. It did have a very refreshing grapefruit taste and some unique smells and flavors. I liked it but did not love it. I would drink it again though as a nice alternative to the norm. I don’t think I could have it all the time though.

Great Beer! Just,slightly,hazy. Pillowy,head. Aroma is evident upon opening the bottle. Tons of hops(juicy,fruity),with yeastiness being noticeable,as well. A store in town still has 2 cases of last years left. If I wouldn’t have had one of those in the past few weeks,and just tasted the base,so to speak,I wouldn’t have noticed in this aroma. It stinks of hops! Super,creamy,mouth. Mainly wheat,slight yeast,flavors secondary to the huge hop flavor. Finish is wet,and hoppy.We just finished a keg of this at my buddies house. His kegs usually last about 6 weeks,this one only 2-3! Great summer beer!

A beer I still return to occasionally. Always a pleasure. Absolutely delicious and refreshing. Has a nice small head that tops an orange and yellow body. The aroma is grass and orange peels with some pineapple. Lots of hops for a wheat beer. Gotta love the ingenuity of US brewers. This bursts on the tongue with lots of orange flavor. Tastes like biting an orange. Very light on the tongue. Similar to drinking orange flavor soda water. There is also a little tropical note of pineapple. I get a little bit of almonds. Absolutely delicious and a perfect summer beer.

Found this one bottled at Top Shelf in South Elgin, Illinois. Hazy medium yellow pour and a thick white head. Very unusual wheat ale. An awesome hoppy and citrusy nose tops a very flavorful and complicated taste. Citrusy hops quickly moves into a citrusy maltiness, banana and orange. Very, very good beer.

I don’t have much to say about this beer: it is very refreshing, crisp, with grapefruit and other citrus flavors in both the flavor and in the aroma. Nice! Good balance, nice carbonation, nice looking.

Slightly hazy golden-orange colour. Absolutely luscious aroma of sweet fruit and grapefruity hops. Crisp, refreshing body. Hop flavour is big, but not overpowering. Flavours of lemon, grapefruit & pine. Really nice stuff! Thanks for jercraigs for sharing.
