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.

Bottle. Asian classic. Probably corn syrup in it? Well it’s not even bitter, aftertaste is not worth mentioning. China, check.

Yeah yeah I have to admit that it is a cool bottle. My girlfriend said: oooh look that one was cool. Me: ehhhh hmm. New brewery and a tick. So I am glad she bought one. The first and last time that stuff will enter my body. She ended most of the liquid inside bottle. Both happy. My goodness it was close to water. Some grainy notes. I had it very cold. Would not dear to try it a bit tempered.

Bottle from Sichuan House in Glasgow. Light yellow and oh so lagery. Adjuncty honey smell. Tastes sweet and a little bit sickly. Long uncomfortable finish. Very macro.

330 ml bottle. Nice bottle, but the beauty seems to stop there. Clear pale golden body with a small film of white foam. Light aroma with hint of grain, malt and some hay. Flavor is mild, slightly on the sweeter side of a pale lager, grain, light malt, light grassy bitterness. Thin bodied and short aftertaste. No really off flavors, but frankly not so much flavors at all. Like an ordinary cheap, mass produced lager from the big city of anywhere.

Bottle. Straw-yellow color, fine foam. Aroma: dirty, corn, rice and boiled vegetables. Taste a little sweet, corn sticks and sadness :(

33cl bottle from Maxima, Tallinn. Pours clear pale golden with a fast dissipating head. Mild grainy aroma with hints of fruits, cooked vegetables and honey. Moderate sweet with low flavour intensity and a light bitterness. Better than expected and the bitterness is mild, but noticable. Utterly boring, but still drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Lucky Beer (Lucky Buddha) on 14 Oct 2016 at 18:45 - Score: 5
