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. Check out Skingraft Comics and Records at SkingraftRecords.com. Cheers!

Poors misty light with a small head. very citrisy aroma - lemon maybe some peach?. Taste of Grapefruit (bitter but fruity) Like the bottle says "It’s not normal". Interesting mix of citris and wheat flavoring. A little too bitter for my palate but still enjoyed

Aroma is light and slightly sweet. Appearance is light. Favor is bitter, slight hops. Less than a IPA, moreso a pale.

Extremely Hoppy. Pours a light yellow with a thick head that does not diminish quickly. Smells of Citrus and Hopps. Great flavor, if you like a hoppy beer then you will love this one.

Bottle. Pours golden yellow with some haze to it and has a decent white head that sticks around for awhile. Aroma is straight up citrus hops. Flavor is.....yeah... citrus hops. Great tangy slightly bitter finish. Extremely refreshing and and thirst quenching. Another great, intensely hopped up 3F version of a "normal" style of beer.
