Well, I was going for Bartender, but that's too obvious for this series. There is something rather zen about a good pint, though...#3: Lizzy B (lizzyb) on Jun 8, 2021 [SPOILER]
can't quite connect a brewer or a lama ...#4: Jota (jota) on Jun 8, 2021
I'm lost!#5: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 9, 2021 [SPOILER]
The closest I can come up with is Fakir, and I can't relate that to a beer...#6: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Jun 10, 2021 [SPOILER]
Foam, overflow, stein? Dalai lama? I am not getting any closer.#7: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jun 10, 2021 [SPOILER]
Kristen had the right word, she just didn't look at it the right way#8: Lizzy B (lizzyb) on Jun 11, 2021 [SPOILER]
a be-er, someone who simply exists?#9: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Jun 11, 2021
Oooohh, I think lizzy got it!#10: Harry Plantinga (hplan) on Jun 11, 2021
The head on the beer looks like a fake ear (fakir)?#11: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jun 11, 2021 [SPOILER]
You got it, Lizzy. The focus of the zen sect of buddhism is to exist totally in the moment -- to *be*.#12: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 12, 2021
Ahh... I see :)#13: Jota (jota) on Jun 13, 2021
Wow!#14: Gary Webster (glwebste) on Aug 11, 2021 [SPOILER]
How many bartenders have you met that are really Zen priests? That's about as much as I have ...#15: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 30, 2022 [SPOILER]
There was a video I watched that had a zen buddhist bartender. I can't seem to find it now. I thought it was a segment in the excellent NHK series Begin Japanology.
