Red Dragon Light Beer

Brewed by Tsingtao Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Qinqdao, China

Had to be one of the worst beer experiences ever! so sweet so disgusting thank the lord i have not seen this beer since that horrible day ..... don’t do it please just don’t

Called Red Dragon Xtreme. Wow, this is bad, as expected, but its bad in new and unexpected ways. Points for originality, I suppose. Mildly citrusy aroma. Weirdly greasy palate. Flavor is bready and, um, tobacco? Chewing tobacco? At this point I’m having some quetions about hygene in the brewery.

The aroma is a lot like an apple cider mixed with sweetened green tea, except with more herbs. The appearance is golden/orange with some particulates. It has the smallest head I have ever seen on a lager and is very lightly carbonated. The taste is sweet, herbal, nutty, buttery, and malty. Even with all that, it’s still bland. There is a paper and yeast aftertaste. This is an odd beer.

My bottle says this is XTREME Beer. Market to America much, China? Oddly herbal and grassy aroma. Looks like ginseng tea with about as much head. Sweet malt mash with an even sweeter honey finish. Almost no carbonation.

Confucious say man who drink watery beer, buy chinese budweiser. Dishwater flavor. totally gagged me and i poured the sucker out. very light carbonation too, like it was already flat.

Keg at the local Chinese Restaurant. Never expected to pick up a rating here, but there you go. Pale yellow, highly gassed, small white head. It wasn’t all that bad, lightly malted with a delicate hop and a floral sweet note. Refreshingly dry, went well with the crispy duck and sizzling beef.

Not much to be desired here. Typical dry, light, rice beer. Small white head.
