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.

Despite what the commercial description says... I can’t taste or smell any hops. A little malt. Not even close to a good lager.

This basically tasted like a Chinese Bud Light. If this beer isn’t so cold, you can’t taste the flavor, it’s not worth drinking. Tastes like water.

bottle. Aroma of honey, malt and macro lager. Pale golden hue with average white head that fully diminished and left little lace. Flavor is honey hops and macro lager. Palate is light and lively. Not bad and better than most American brews but still crap.

Pale golden color with thin white head. Mild cereal grain aroma with hints of wet hay and citrus. Thin bodied with light mouthfeel, plenty of effervesence. Light sweet malt taste with gentle, crisp, somewhat dry hop finish. Very refreshing, great session beer.

Bottle. Pours golden yellow with a little white head. Aroma is corn and light hops. Flavor much of the same. Pretty sharp mouthfeel served very cold. Not good, but definately refreshing.

Bottle. Pours clear gold with a off white head. Mild malts - hay/grass with a medium & short bitterness. Watery . . bland!

Drank quite a bit of this in Shanghai and Hong Kong and it wasn’t bad at all. Crisp, clean flavor with mild hops and some malts. Body is a bit thin, but that actually adds to its drinkability. Was incredibly fresh. I imagine it’s not nearly as good outside of China due to the green bottle, but if you can find it fresh it’s a pretty respectable macro lager.
