Bottle. Gold with a modest white head. Aroma of mandarins and grilled oranges, light biscuit. 7+ (but it's a little shy) Sweet at first with light bread and biscuit, peach and mandarin. Then some lime, spices and then pine resin come through towards a fairly bitter finish. The mix of bitter and sweet citrus lingers. Very clean, almost austere at the end. Pretty good but a bit aloof for a Two Birds beer.
