Colour and sight: pale blond, the fine and regular effervesce ensures a fine and stable head.
Scent: Slightly malty, a nice touch of alcohol, spicy.
Flavour: Feels like the sound shot of alcohol is igniting the mouth. In reality the tongue and palate are warmed. The taste is characterized by its roundness. The aftertaste is strong, long-lasting and dry bitter.

Canned version with L6214 12:15 stamped on the bottom.
Clear, golden body topped with a thick, sculpted head. Soft peach aroma blended with subtle hints of light, cereal malts; esters. Gentle sweetness to the flavor; banana and cloves; alcohol presence yet very tame; light biscuit taste; bitterness near the finish. Heavy but not overbearing mouthfeel; lush and velvety; slight tanginess.
This beer is what a strong ale should be like. It's not delicate per se yet certainly packs a lot of subtleties and complexities with each sip. It's boozy without harshness, it's fruity without cloying sweetness; it's heavy bodied yet comes across with a deft, almost light, warmth and succulent feel. One fine beer...
