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.

I love ’Ching-Dow,’ especially with Chinese food. It is a great beer for what it is, and I am rating it as such. It smells nice, and has a rich golden color and thick mouthfeel. It is what regular beer should be.

I liked this beer and think most of the comments for this beer is tainted by personal issues these people have with Chinese people and not the beer. Good taste with a pleasant after taste.

This is a very smooth beer excellent on a warm day. It has a light golden apperance and holds its head reasonably well The aroma is mildly hoppy, with malt flavours coming through in the aftertaste.

china i think has a very good beer here. Not strong and not too mild it is just right. Nice aroma and taste. the taste stays till end. very smooth on the palate not harsh. not watered down like some of the other people say it is.

UPDATED: JAN 31, 2006 One of the only Chinese beers I’ve ever tried. Light, dry and and very crisp with a hint of maltiness. Mildly sweet finish. One of the few beers that I will drink as cold as I can get it. Love the way this one feels on the palate.
