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.

Bottle. Pours very pale, with almost no head at all. Some hops in the nose. Dry crisp taste. Nothing special.

This was not too bad for a swill, in fact rather better than expected. Colour, head, and aroma were all pretty much swill-standard, but flavour and mouthfeel were a touch better. I’d have it again. Re-reviewed: after having this stuff in the homeland (China), it seems a touch better than that which I’ve had at home. Maybe they keep the good stuff for their ’home’ market?

smells fairly gross and the palate is quite awful. But it’s one of those beers that isn’t very bad when you’re eating, but not something to look forward to really. China has many better beers.

Very pale yellow, rapidly disappearing white head. Not much aroma. Very light body, some bitterness, but completely forgettable.

Just another tasteless macro offering for the masses. Slightly better than the other Chinese beers I have tried so far, so I see why it gets exported.

Bottle. Poured a nice golden color with a thin whicte head. Aroma is very skunky with some sweet malt and hop notes standing out. The taste was very light and refreshing, but it had a skunky aftertaste. Better than an American Macro, but not by much.
