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.

This beer must be drank fresh! The hop profile on this is awesome. Citrusy, some pine and grapefruit. But its mostly the nose. The beer is a interesting twist on the wheat beer style. There is more hops there than a usual wheat beer. The taste of this beer is great when its fresh. Thanks cexshun for the extra.

12 oz bottle from Binny’s. Aroma: HOPS! Citrusy, lemon, sweet. Appearance: Light, golden, bubbly. White, small carbonated head that dissipates quickly. Flavor: Intense mouthful of hops. Tons of hop aftertaste. Lemon and fruity in the middle. Wheat. Palate: Decently high carbonation. Smooth. Really rolls of the tongue. Light. Overall: Well...Three Floyd’s keeps impressing me. This is the best "wheat" beer I’ve ever had. Props to the boys in Munster on this one. Actually, I had this on tap during Darklord Day in 2008 and it was even better.

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.

Thanks courtesy of Pepsican. Pours a hazy golden orange with white head. Aroma of fruit and hops. Tastes of citrus fruits like lemons orange and peaches, with a nice bitter hop finish. This is the first FFF beer I have tried and it has certainly lived up to the hype. Outstanding and by far my favorite wheat beer

Hard to believe this is a wheat beer. If there were a category for "gumball" bres, this one would be signature. Lemon citrus sugar flavor somewhat reminiscent of gum from baseball card packs (but this one’s charm doesn’t quickly disappear). Very enjoyable and unique. A glowing body and summoning head makes this a must try beer for any explorer.

Poured from a bomber amber in color with an off-white head. Aroma was citrus hops. Flavor was citrus hops with a lemon finish. A great offering from 3F’s

One of my favorite drinking beers. Refreshing, light, but complex enough to keep you interested. Citrus, bubblegum, with a little bitterness and lemon in the finish.

Normally I’m not a fan of grapefruit, but the zinger on the tail end of the taste is a nice change of pace.
