Conditions:
Night in clouds, no visible horizon
Low weight with Aft CG
Low speed on final will cause more nose up trim
Manual Go Around with full thrust plus aft trim will lead to an extreme nose up attitude

Pilot will be surprised by the high pitch attitde. 20-25 nose up
high force to put the stick forward will not decrease the pitch attitude
Autopilot ON will not help the situation, except you remember to increase the speed
impossible to achieve a low level off
Nose down stabilizer will help....if you do not apply too much stabilizer, which will cause a dive

another solution:
reduce thrust
bank to get the nose down to the horizon
complete the recovery
There is also a good chance you end up in a dive
