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.

12 oz bottle. Crisp and fairly refreshing in offensive beer. Sort of a soda with some alcohol in it. It goes okay with chinese food I guess. Not filling, not flavorful, not much of anything.

GJF (971) - Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA - MAR 27, 2008
UPDATED: JUL 10, 2008 For what it is, it’s not bad. Pours a really pale straw color with a small white head. Not much aroma. Fairly balanced malt with light hop finish. Not much to it, but it’s ok--goes pretty well with some sushi.

Bottle. First tried this one at the ’82 world’s fair. Wasn’t that bad. Recently tried it again. Whew! skunk beer. Tastes like skunk water. Sure did change. Won’t try it again. Do not recommend.

Straw color with a medium white head that vanishes quickly. Smells skunky with a bit of hops and grass. taste is weak and slightly watery

topherh (1708) - Kearney, Missouri, USA - MAR 17, 2008
12 oz bottle pours a clear golden with a thin white head. Aroma is of some hops and a little skunky. Flavor is of slight hop bitterness and a little grainy malt.

Sparky (2128) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - MAR 11, 2008
Bottle from Cost Plus. Pours a light golden color with thin white head. Nose has a bit of hops and grassy overtones. A bit skunky. Palate is slightly sweet with just a bit of hops bitterness and a slight skunky aftertaste. This is a yardwork beer. You could slam a few of these after coming in sweaty from mowing the lawn.

I had quite a few of these in Shanghai and Beijing, but I actually found this one at my local brew store. Brought back thoughts of good times w/ my best friend. Awesome... I need more.
