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.

When all is said and done, this is pretty bad stuff, perhaps no better than a Bud and certainly inferior to an Iron City despite its more exotic reputation. It is a mass market macro brewery rice lager. It has only the smallest head, and leaves no lacing; just plain ugly. Nose of rice and grain, with barely a hint of hops, thin watery mouth, taste of rice and malts and barely a hint of hops ... just nasty stuff even if served with an exotic Beijing banquet. Feh.

Chinese Heineken... you know - Chinaken! Really not great stuff - everything you’d expect out of a lager in a green bottle.

i guess for the quantity of this they brew it is not bad... it is watery at best, acid white head gone in seconds and the flavor (which is very faint) is certainly not going to upset anyone. i probably would not ever buy it but VPB brought some over to my house and hey, free beer is always good beer in my book. :-)

Bottle @ Noble House into lager glass. Pours a warm yellow with a decent white head that quickly deflates. Not much carbonation at all. Very sweet, corny and kind of banana/warm grain smell and taste. Not awesome but not a drain pour.

Bottle - Pours a typical prem. lager way with a fairly fast-fall head. Aroma is somewhat sweet and sour with hints of cereal, but still fairly clean. The taste has similar notes, but with added notes of metal and mild hops. If served nice and cold, it is very refreshing!

Very clear with a light golden color, high carbonation and a small, thin, white head. A light note of noble hops and a lot of grain notes with a light sweet and sour note. Flavor is really grainy, sweet with a light spicy hops. Very thin and just not much to it. Overall not bad but thing that is really unique about it.
