Unique69crazy (107), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Apr 17, 2008 Great refreshing brew! Three Floyds has a great assortment of delicious beers and this did not change my opinion of that. From start to finish, a symphony of amarillo and citrus bursts capped off with a smooth well balanced aroma. Both pleasant to the smell and taste, this one should be liked by most beer lovers.
Narnad (111), Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA Oct 9, 2008 Beers pours from the bottle a clear golden color with a thick bleach white head which dissipates quickly. A heavy citrus and floral hop aroma hits the nose as soon as the bottle is opened up. Flavor is pretty grassy mixed with wheat at the start but finishes with a great grapefruit flavor at the end of the tasting. A good and unique beer. bellmyer (14), EAST MOLINE, Illinois, USA Oct 4, 2008 Bottle from the brewery. Pours a dull clear orange with receding head. Aroma is very sweet hops and malts. Flavor is also very sweet, not a whole lot there. Lacing is not present. Not my favorite FFF but still a drinkable brew, better if it was a hot summer day. Better than a 2.9 puggy211 (336), cordova, Tennessee, USA Oct 4, 2008 This is a very light, clear, clean straw color with golden hues. The carbonation helps to maintain the head for some time. It has a great floral hop aroma similar to other FFF beers. There is a perfumy floral taste that pervails but doesn’t dominate. Also some citrus hops are present and a bit of sweetness. This is a great tasting beer and tastes more like an IPA than a wheat, but I like it just the same. wrburgess (2), CHICAGO, Illinois, USA does not count Sep 26, 2008 Normally I’m not a fan of grapefruit, but the zinger on the tail end of the taste is a nice change of pace. gax33 (11), Minooka, Illinois, USA Sep 26, 2008 Not what you’d expect in a wheat beer. I’m not a big fan of any pine-taste in my beer and this one had a subtle pine flavor. Also, more carbonation than I’d prefer. Some sweetness mixed with some bitterness. Overall, it’s a slightly above average experience but with so many people raving about Gumballhead - I was disappointed.
