Beery times in December - Day 9
This year my family created such a wonderful Xmas beer calendar from me.
I'm so happy about this that I had to post every day a beer. Even better, I have to taste it before...
This means, each day of the cold and dark @detlev get some light and warm feelings by searching for another beer from that big green Box.
9.th of December beer - Lucifer
Another cool name for a beer from my xmas calendar

Lucifer
Lucifer entered the market in the early 1980s under the label of the Riva brewery.
It was an extension to the popular segment of strong, blond beers. In 2009, brewery Het Anker obtained the right to brew and commercialize Lucifer.
Lucifer is a strong, blond beer (8.0%) with a gold yellow color and creamy white head.
Its fruity aroma with subtle notes of bitter hops, followed by a long and perfectly balanced finish, will definitely seduce you!

The Beer
Lucifer is another award winning Belgium Beer I like to show you
Dark golden, rocky white head. Smells of Belgian yeasty spice, fruity, sugar, candy sweetness.
Taste has candied banana, clove, honey, malt, other fruits.
Slightly hazy with a dark gold color, topped by a tall. pillowy, off-white head and massive lacing. A gorgeous beer.
Aromas of cracked grain, black pepper, light citrus and low honey. Boozy alcohol lurks in the background.
Flavors start out sweeter than expected, with cotton candy, honey and light orange citrus, but the effect is still fairly delicate rather than cloying.
The finish dries out and highlights the black pepper, perhaps assistedby peppery hops.
Body is medium to heavy. Carbonation is full buth smooth and helps cut through the sweetness and body.
Hops bitterness is low to moderate but noticeable. Alcohol is definitely present, but not overpowering.

The Brewery
The Beer is made by the Brouwerij Het Anker Guido Gezellenlaan 49, Mechelen, 2800, Belgium and you find the place on the SteemitWorldMap.
How does this new DIY calendar work?
It is so simple and cool as well.
My family know what I love and the found a big old box wich they painted in green color. Then they filled with some smooth stuff.
I think they „borrowed“ it from the rabbits from our friends house. As you see, even the cats helped with some work. They did the nice “patina“ to the green color.
Danger happend
While I was trying to get my bottle out of the calendar, I was getting attacked by this dangerous animal
