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.

The other decent premium lager I’ve had is Kronenburg. This tsing is a 12 oz green bottle, label looks a little different than is displayed here. No skunk when I pop the top and it has a very clean mild aroma. Has bubbles constantly arising from the bottom and the color is typical pale clear yellow american beer. Very good decent first taste impression. Well behaved with above average carbonation tingle. Nice even taste that cannot be much different than american lagers. Has a bit of alky impact in there. Nothing really great but well behaved and enjoyable. No tremendous outstanding personality and some of us like it that way. Finish has a strange industrial mild bitterness to it that hangs on for a minute or two. However, it is not as industrial as King Lager. Better than sam adams boston lager and Saranac traditional lager.

(33 cl bottle at restaurant "Djingis Khan" in Stockholm, Sweden) Labeled 4.7%. Clear straw yellow color, white creamy head. Fruity and sweet malty scent with some marzipan. Thin watery malty taste. Low bitterness.

Bottle. Poured yellow with small white head and almost no lacing. Nose was very mild, mostly of rice. Some hops in flavor. Not much mouthfeel and no fiinish. Very bland.

Bottle: Poured a golden yellow with a white head. The aroma was soft and grainy probably because of the rice ingredience used to make it. The flavor was a smooth pils like taste of grain. Worked pretty well with the spicy Chinese dish that I was eating.

A horrible copy of a hienkin, with off notes abound, just kinda tangy, almost bitter. Has a urine-like aroma. Pretty sure they use even lower quality ingredinents than bud.

Bottle. Poured pale yellow with minimal head, overly carbonated. Aromas and tastes of grassy hops. Crisp clean finish thanks to watery lack of flavours. Not offensive and not memorable either.

Poured from bottle, very little head, but decent lacing. Pale yellow color. Not a lot of flavor, some spice, some sweetness, maybe lemon? It actually goes really well with spicy Chinese food...Wouldnt want to drink it alone though.

Bottle. Not great but decent lager. Slight metallic taste to me. It was a good fit with spicy Chinese food.
