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.

Run of the mill, mass produced beer. Pleasant hint of hops in the nose. Don't mean to seem unpatriotic, but I'll drink it.

One thing’s for sure, if you go to a house party with this stuff, your going to get pointed out. It’s a good conversation starter if anything. (not that i need help in that field)

Nice clean beer but there’s something missing that I can’t quite place. Also a bit lightly carbonated for my taste. Maybe a bit dry in the finish also.

Grainy aroma. Yellow golden color, white head, few lace. Maltsweet, rahter full but grainy. Short malty finish. Although not really a very bad brew I couldn't finish it because of it's grainy fullness.

Darkover (1440) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - FEB 14, 2005
UPDATED: JAN 24, 2008 Clear yellow with a white head. Aroma of bread, toast and skunk. Flavor is sweet with a little tangy bitterness.

OKBeer (1168) - Halifax, Nova Scotia, CANADA - FEB 9, 2003
Somewhat skunky and flowery aroma. White frothy head that quickly diminishes. Light gold colour. Light bitter taste to start, finishes acidic. Unpleasant fizzy, almost sharp feel. Not great.

Bottle (640ml): This was a pretty avg. looking beer what was quite clear and pale. It smelt & tasted exactly as you’d expect from a pale lager with grain & corn dominating both categories and scoring about average in each. It was light on the palate, smooth enough & crisp but there is much better beers out there costing less. More at: abarwithnoname.wordpress.com

Farblich blass-gelb startet das Tsingtao mit wässrigem Antrunk und bietet einen spülwasser-affinen Mittelteil. Der Abgang ist überraschend abrupt hopfig-trocken und das Beste an diesem Bier. Ein Allerwelts-Gebräu.Test vom 5.11.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche
