T42 tasting on me Birfaday. Thanks to the Fergus German rot box. Light haze on this paleish gold beer, short lived pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, mildly dry and has modest fine carbonation. Mild floral sweetness. Whisper of paper in the otherwise clean pale malts. Trace of citrus peel. Light dry finish. Muted but okay.
