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.

eboats (1054) - Omaha, Nebraska, USA - JUN 28, 2008
Bottled. Pours honey colored with a small white head. Aroma is brown rice and perhaps some burnt toast. Flavor is sweet grain. Thin but sweet body with at least some noticable malt.

mikkopen (481) - Oulu, FINLAND - JUN 27, 2008
330 ml bottle. Very pale yellow colour, thin white head. Mild aroma of malts, rice and some hops. Very thin and watery mouthfeel, weak carbonation. Thin flavour of malts and rice, tastes mostly like water. Don’t waste your time and money on this one.

Guinness4Duff (515) - Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA - JUN 26, 2008
Bottle. Golden pour with a white head. Faint aroma of stale hops, flavor has a decent malt base with a strange balancing bitterness. I dont know whats premium about this, just like any other pale lager. Apparently there are no adjuncts... so I guess the Chinese will put rice in everything except beer.

Haslinger (689) - Syracuse, New York, USA - JUN 26, 2008
I hope China has much better beers to offer. This is one of or the only Chinese beer I have ever had and it just isn’t very good. Would not buy again
