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.

Pale yellow, no head. Aroma of hay, grass, light fruit. Thin, watery, oily grain, hint of fruit on the finish. Boring, but works very well with Chinese food!

Pours clear pale yellow with almost no head. Aroma has notes of malt, rice and hay. Taste is light sweet and light bitter. Body is light, texture is thin, carbonation is soft.

Kavu (929) - Jyväskylä, FINLAND - JUL 17, 2011
Pours pale golden with a low head. No aroma, very light flavor of malts. Well, at least it’s easy to drink.

garza (460) - Oslo (NO), Caracas (VE), VENEZUELA - JUL 16, 2011
Very clear golden look, faint white head dissapearing very fast. Some corn nose but not much aroma. Refreshing on the taste, lightly bitter but a bit watery overall. Light body, thin feel, average carbonation, and a short dry finish. Average lager.

It’s like a Chinese version of Corona. Smooth and refreshing, but not really beer.

Ännu en dag på jobbet, ännu ett öl i glaset. Tsingtao är lika spännande som automatkaffe, uppiggande som ett möte om ett kommande möte och intressant som ett massutskick. Kort sagt: ett öl för de dagar då allting är sig likt och livet fortsätter i samma spår mot evigheten.

The Tsingtao I’ve had was 4.7% ABV. To me it tasted like another mass produced lager. Nothing special.
