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.

GregClow (2645) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 29, 2006
Bottle at Green Mango (Thai restaurant). Pale gold with a good sized white head. Aroma is surprisingly not skunky - there’s some sweet malt in there, some vague lemony hops, a hint of rice. Body is light and crisp. Flavour follows the aroma - sweet malt, toasted rice, quick herbal hops. Not amazing by any means, but better than I remember it being. A good match for spicy and greasy food.

DSG (2633) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - JAN 31, 2009
Bottle (thanks mom!). Clear pale golden color with a medium, very bubbly, white head that diminishes fast. Aroma is quite grainy with some corn notes and faint hoppy hints. Sweet flavor of cereals, some creamed corn and really light bitterness in the finish. Light-bodied.

Jeppe (2633) - Ølbutikken, DENMARK - DEC 8, 2003
I sometimes drink this beer at my local Dim Sum pusher! It is a very light pilsener but it has some kind of interesting crispy feeling to it (almost like Champagne....). Very thin and watery with very little flavor.

Nekronos (2627) - Xalapa, MEXICO - NOV 4, 2005
UPDATED: FEB 8, 2006 Smells like a lager PIlsener, but with some honney features. Not bad, but not a beer that would make you crazy.

My friend bought a bottle of this at papago. Poured some in a glass for me. Well a bitter beer that maybe to me it’s only purpose besides the free tee shirt is another rating.
