In a world a world that's full of change, it's good to know that Lucky Beer offers something consistently good natured. Although the distinctive laughing Buddha bottle is central to our brand, Lucky Beer - and the good fortune it shares - transcends all religions, cultural boundaries and beliefs.
In its simplest form, we stand for goodwill for all humanity.
"If you think that enlightenment is separate from the drinking of beer you have not yet understood" Ancient Taoist Saying.
The "Laughing Buddha" depicted on Lucky Buddha beer is actually not THE Buddha and therefore not religious but cultural. He is incorporated in Buddhist, Taoist and Shinto traditions. The term buddha means "one who is awake", connoting one who has awakened into enlightenment.

Corn adjunct and a bit of skunk right under the cap. Hazy brownish-yellow, little bits of grain pouring out of the bottle. There's at least some decent malt to it. But also some sugar. At least it's properly fizzy.

Fänsi pudel! Aga hiina ticki peab ikka ära proovima - maitseb nagu suvaline keskpärane maitsetu makro laager. Toidu kõrvale võib tarbida küll. Joodav.
