Antifreeze boiling over

Antifreeze is boiling over at the degas bottle, but the motor isn't running hot. It goes through about a gallon every 500 miles. You can smell it as you're driving it and it drips off of the hoses and lower parts after shutting the engine off. Is it head gaskets? Turbo boost leaking in to the coolant system? There is no smoke, it's only boiling up through the cooling system. Any ideas? It's an '04 King Ranch 6.0 with 97k miles.
