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.

Trev (1424) - Lakeville, Minnesota, USA - SEP 3, 2005
From the bottle: Pours a clear light gold with a fizzy white head that’s gone soon after pouring. Intense grainy citrus aroma at first. Then some subdued hop and slightly chemical scents come out. Flavour is rather light. High carbonation. A family friend suffers from Celiacs Disease (problems with Gluten) and drinks this beer because of the higher proportion of rice to barley.

BeerBiker (1412) - Odense, DENMARK - DEC 28, 2006
[Tasted in Sapa, Vietnam.] Real a dissapointment. Had heard rumours about some hoppiness, but it was a just watery beer to my vietnamese nem (springrolls).

Bottle as shown. Pours a clear golden with small frothy white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is a corn malt and wheat grass. Thin mouthfeel with a bitter malt and bitter finish, not much going on with this one.

Decent Chinese mass produced beer. Tsingtao means clear island FWIW. solid beer.
