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.

LIght gold pour, bubbly white head. Aroma is mostly light malt, grain, a touch of honey, and light floral hops. Flavor is much of the same, with barley and grain the dominant characteristics. Very light mouthfeel typical of the style. Not bad.

coyforce (294) - Mississippi, USA - MAR 21, 2010
This beer smells very skunky. Pours a light pee color with a very small - almost non-discernible white head. Tastes salty and lightly sour.

Typical lager, easy to drink nothing to remember afterthe bottle is finished. OK for lunch to flush down the food with.

Bouteille, bière blonde commerciale mais très agréable avec des plats relevés de l’Asie. Léger goût de houblon agréable, rafraichissante à souhait. une bonne Lager commerciale.

Jade (294) - AUSTRALIA - MAR 6, 2010
Not great. Looks like water. A light golden colour with no head. Aroma is very bready. Tastes like it looks, very little flavour and no impact whatsover on the palette. Even as a mass produced lager it ain’t great.

Vaiz (1847) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - MAR 4, 2010
Bottle at home. Very pale golden pour, almost no head. Grainy skunked aroma and a very skunked watery flavor. No finish. Average carbonation. Quite dull.

Elwood (1834) - Between a rock and a hard place, Virginia, USA - MAR 4, 2010
Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Pours a pale gold with a very small foamy white head. The head doesn’t last long. Really struggled to get much from the nose on this one. Some stale grain and cardboard notes were about it. The taste is decidely bland with those oxidized notes carrying over in the flavor. An unrewarding bitterness chimes in too. The overaggressive carbonation doesn’t seem to help matters. Light on the palate with a weak, medium-short finish. Definitely pass this brew by.

dEnk (1592) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - MAR 1, 2010
Pale goldish yellow, medium soapy head. Aroma is very fresh with some hops at first but becomes extremely faint very quickly. Flavour is disappointing, watery with a weird bitterness. No drain pour but that’s it.
