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.

Bottled. By itself, its a bit non-descript. With a Chinese meal, the slight sweetness and grassiness worked well as a counterbalance to the food. Serves a purpose.

Pale yellow lager. Had it cold with a 10-course chinese dinner for which it fitted perfectly, which explains why I’ve upped the Overall score a bit :)

i have never noticed a bad aroma around this beer. this is a very good beer when pared with certain foods. it has a pleasant fruit taste and is clean and refreshing. it even has a bit of body to it. you could drink this by itself... on a hot day. moderate bubbles. not bad at all. bit of a hidden bite on the tip of the tongue.

Scubatrip (549) - Alexandria, Virginia, USA - JUL 13, 2005
Out of a bottle, it’s light, a little cloudy, quickly dispersing head. Aromas of grains, similar to American macro brews. The taste is nothing to write home about. Watery, but not bad. Goes very well (as it should) with Asian cuisine.

Full Bodied Disappointment. Rich tasting beer, yet, does not much for me. Mass produced attempt at quality beer, but acceptable drink with asian food and wash down drink.

paulmetzger (153) - Pocatello, Idaho, USA - APR 10, 2006
Aroma of spring flowers, babysbreath; interesting. Pours very light blonde, with medium to low co2. Shart and mild bitter finishing somewhat sweet and flowery.

Mirage52 (147) - New Market, Maryland, USA - NOV 16, 2006
Pours a bright golden color with a medium sized thick head. Medium carbination. Mouthfeel is almost creamy and the finish contains a slightly sweet, yet bitter taste. Not worth the hefty import price, but not a bad beer on its own.

dchmela (2218) - Orlando, Florida, USA - FEB 18, 2008
Pours clear with a slight amber color and a very white foamy head. Malty grassy aroma. Taste is clean and crisp with some malty hints. Not my favorite, but not terrible.
