Commercial Description:
An American Wheat Beer brewed with red wheat and boat loads of amarillo hops gives this summer brew a lemony finish. The slight haze in the bottle is from the bottle-conditioning, where yeast is added to the bottle for a secondary fermentation. Gumballhead is a Skingraft Comics hero.

12oz. bottle from bdigi66....thanks Robert! golden/slight orange pour and a wonderful aroma of citrus and grapefruits....almost an IPA aroma! Extremely light beer! Slight citrus and hops flavor much better than any wheat beer out there! Wonderful session beer. This being my first experience with FFF’s and I am so excited to try the rest of the lineup!!!!!!!

Not sure how this can rate under 3.2-3.5 Strange wheat beer and the final flavor that hits you is an eye opener. Cloudy amber-yellow, hops, wheat, citrus. Enjoy....

12 ounce bottle given to me by a friend. I was not expecting much out of this brew because my buddy said it was nothing too exciting. I think he was wrong... Poured a deep gold color with a nice sized white head. The aroma consisted of a lot of citrus hops with a little bit of floral in the background. The taste was extremely refreshing with a nice citrus taste with a nice hop character. Finished very smooth making me want more. I thought this was an excellent beer! Probably my favorite wheat beer to date!

Clear golden pour with a bubble head. Nose is hops, sweet malt, kind of intense. Taste is the opposite of what I expected: very mellow with the perfect amount of hops and a nice citrus finish. I’m not a big fan of wheat beers, but this is excellent.

Great hoppy flavor. Hits all parts of your mouth. Much better than most "run of the mill" IPAs.

Tasted on 5/4/08. The appearance is at first sort of off putting. It pours a fizzy filtered yellow with a white head that fades fast, but once you get to the smell you know its a whole different ballgame. It smells of strong citrus hops and a nice wheat sweetness. The taste is similar to the smell and its just perfect. A nice hop bitterness with a sweet wheat after taste. Its more like a plain pale ale but with an added wheat sweetness. This is an exceptional beer. The mouthfeel is sort of thin but its ever so drinkable. I wish I could get this all summer in Texas!

Pours golden with small but nice head. It’s got a citrus/honey/hop/wheat flavor. Great finish.
