Common descriptors are
There’s a nearby rock, the Devils Courthouse, where according to legend the devil holds court...with his pitchfork in one hand and one of these in the other.

This devilishly enticing, high gravity Belgian golden strong ale is an estery, flavorful concoction that’s true to it’s Belgian roots. It’s spicy and potent with a heart of pure sweet evil. Brewed and secondary fermented with pure Belgian candy sugar raises the ABV to a lofty 9.5%, but hides the heat with a light, residual sweetness.
