3 Floyds ‘Gumballhead’ Craft Beer Review

Brewed by 3 Floyds Brewing Co.

Style: American Pale Wheat Ale

5.60% ABV

Serve at 45-50°

Availability: year-round

Enjoyed from a snifter

A: Pours a bubbly golden orange with a finger of frothy white head that lingers with spotty, thin lacing.

S: Not as overwhelming as one might think. A little lemony, fruity, clean, Slightly swampy with a subtle wheat presence.

T: Delicious! Lemon rind, mango, pineapple, berries, earthy, floral hop notes that linger into a sweet almost candy finish.

M: Thicker than most wheat or pale ales, but still fairly light as expected for the style. Perfect, ample carbonation.

O: This year-round beer isn’t always available in my market, so I jumped at the chance to grab this. 3 Floyds are known for their insane hopbombs and Dark Lord stout, but this is a refreshing, way above average summer beer worth spending the money on. Get it.
