Kolor ciemno brązowy, rubinowy, klarowny. Piana beżowa, wysoka, trwała. Piana zbudowana jest z drobnych pęcherzyków, intensywnie oblepia szklankę.
Aromat jest dość intensywny, jest słodowy, chlebowy, lekko palony, karmelowy, z mocną nutą, ciemnych, smażonych owoców (śliwki). W tle delikatne akcenty ziemiste. Jest spójny, zachęca do spróbowania tego piwa.
Smak umiarkowanie słodki, owoco wy (dżem) z delikatną, paloną goryczką na finiszu.
Wysycenie średnie. Ciało średnie w górę. Tekstura gładka. Posmak średnio długi, wytrawny.
