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: Light, transparent straw-colored body. More hops than expected in the nose, with a hint of carmel. Mild malt sweetness that builds in the mouth. Then the hops hit, moreso than expected. Not great by any means, but better than most Asian lagers...

Bottle at Green Mango (Thai restaurant). Pale gold with a good sized white head. Aroma is surprisingly not skunky - there’s some sweet malt in there, some vague lemony hops, a hint of rice. Body is light and crisp. Flavour follows the aroma - sweet malt, toasted rice, quick herbal hops. Not amazing by any means, but better than I remember it being. A good match for spicy and greasy food.

[Tasted in Sapa, Vietnam.] Real a dissapointment. Had heard rumours about some hoppiness, but it was a just watery beer to my vietnamese nem (springrolls).

Pale yellow lager. Had it cold with a 10-course chinese dinner for which it fitted perfectly, which explains why I’ve upped the Overall score a bit :)

Definitely a bit of a surprise with its crisp tart taste and refreshing finish

Tastes like a US macro at a premium price. If you close your eyes you’ll think its a Bud.

Looks clear and pale golden in the glass. Light and a bit sparkling mouthfeel. A quite common lager. OK, but not a unforgettable one.
