Buddha and beer are two things that, even with the greatest mental effort, can hardly be connected. China's Cheerday Brewery has taken this quantum leap and released a beer sold in a Buddha-shaped bottle. Buddha bowls were yesterday, today there is Buddha beer!
Anyone who thought that the path to enlightenment was hard and rocky and peppered with laborious meditation and ascetic renunciation can breathe a sigh of relief: a sip of beer is enough to escape the dreary world and join the holy ranks of the enlightened. At least that's what Cheerday Brewery promises to everyone who consumes their beer. Making fun of its Chinese origins, the brewery advertises Lucky Buddha with funny slogans reminiscent of Chinese fortune cookie wisdom and a Chinese wall made of Buddha beer bottles. Whether it's enlightenment or not, the Lucky Buddha is a fluffy, light lager that looks impressive with its bottle design: decorated with various symbols of good luck, the green glass Buddha smiles blissfully and promises a truly divine beer experience.
According to Cheerday Brewery, makers of Buddha Beer, their bottle is not modeled on the image of the one Buddha who is the linchpin of the Buddhist religion. Rather, it is Budai, the laughing Buddha. This figure is one of the seven gods of luck and is often used for advertising purposes in China. And if you think about your clichés about China in your head, you might also think of another thing besides Buddha: rice! This not only plays a major role in the Asian diet, but also in Lucky Beer : The Asian-style lager is brewed with rice flakes. These give the light beer a surprisingly sour note, which makes the lager a refreshing companion for mild summer evenings and hot days. So if you want to take a little trip to China after work, we recommend a bottle of Lucky Beer!
