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.

Shared 330 ml green "Buddha" bottle, as Lucky Buddha, from Billund Airport, duty free store. ABV is 4.7%. Golden colour, white head. Heineken-like aroma of lightstruck hops, not awful though. Bland flavour, slightly sweet, uninteresting but not undrinkable.

Shared bottle at RB/HD at Fjøløy 02.09.16. Pale golden. Diminishing whiite head. Aroma and taste of sweet Eurolager. Artificialness in mouthfeel. Unfresh.

From the crazy bottle to a pint glass. A fair amount of cereal grain and a slight spicy aspect in the finish of the hops. Clear straw with moderate low white head. This was not terrible.

Ein Bier, das am ehesten durch seine Flaschenform in Erinnerung bleibt. Geschmacklich ist es mehr als fade. EIn wässriges BIer ohne wahre Substanz.

330ml bottle. Pours pale yellow with no head. Aroma is grain and grass. Taste is lemon, grain and very watery - at times It felt like I was drinking beer-flavoured water. Waste of time.

330ml bottle (which looks great). Pale golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is corny, and lightly sweet malt. Taste similar to the aroma, it’s lightly sweet malt, and grainy, no bitterness. Texture is thin, watery. It’s not too bad actually just another average lager. I do think the bottle is pretty cool but it’s the only thing that makes this stand out.
Sidenote: Ratebeer seems to think this is Australian but mine was brewed and bottled in China.
