COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Tsingtao Beer has a pleasant aroma and a well-balanced taste. It has high-malty flavor and well-hopped character. Tsingtao is produced with spring water from Laoshan, a mountain area famous throughout China for the purity of its water. The domestically-grown hops used to brew Tsingtao are of such high quality that they are also exported to European breweries. Tsingtao also uses the finest yeast and barley imported from Australia and Canada in its brewing process.

NOTE: Under this entry, rate ONLY exported Tsingtao that roughly matches the ABV and local Tsingtao that matches it completely. If it differs in any way and doesn’t match the other entries under the brewer, please send in a bug report with the alcohol percentage, degrees plato (important!), the GTIN and preferably a link to a picture of both the front and the back label so that we can set up an entry.

Basic Pale Lager, untasty and not very pleasant to drink. I had this one a long time ago. If I have the "chance" to drink it again, I’ll update this rating

Bottle - small foamy head, pale straw color, very generic pale lager aroma and flavor

jesperhammer (1285) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - FEB 7, 2012
07-FEB-2012, bottle @home, from "Superbest". Nice golden color with almost no white head. No nose at all. Perhaps just a little bitterness. Sweet hayish malty taste. Clean. Sweet. Ends just a little bitter. Uninteresting. Will probably work in the heat, but not a high class product:-)

wow, this is a really poor drink (not even gonna call it beer!) awful pissy yellow colour, not head but loads of bubbles. slight whiff of malt. no flavour, might as well be drinking sparkling water. UTTER PISH

DutchDrebus (1112) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - FEB 5, 2012
Clear pale yellow colour. Smells like a regular pilsener, alcohol and malts. Tastes watery, sweet, bit cheap.. Okay pilsener.

HopTsing (31) - Sandston, Virginia, USA - FEB 4, 2012
Bottle. Nice balance of malt and hops in both taste and aroma. Thick white head over top of a pale yellow color. The mouth feel is lite like a pilsner. I didn’t detect a lot of extra flavors, but the ones I did made for a very pleasant beer drinking esperience.

Pale yellow color, med white head. Smells like straw and sweet malts and rice. Taste like rice, mineral water and sweet malts. Basic taste, but quite watery and thin. I do not find this offensive, but I would choose many other lagers over this one.

sebletitje (4002) - Enghien, BELGIUM - FEB 2, 2012
33cl found at Colruyt. Dorée, col blanc. Bière somme toute banale sur un bouquet doux de riz avec qcq cônes de houblon pour donner bonne cause, malt pâle. En bouche, bien est pétillante, légère et reste douce dû au riz et se fini avec un côté amer léger du malt pale et du houblon. Rien de spécial ici.
