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: 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.

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.

This was the first and last time I will try this beer. Sampled from a 12 oz green bottle this beer poured a straw yellow color with a small soapy white head. The aroma was sour and skunky. The flavor was sour malt, skunk, and a bit corny. The mouthfeel was surprisingly thick which was the only redeeming quality I could find. Drain pour.

Bottled. Slightly skunked aroma. Pours a very pale amber with a slightl but lacy white head. Taste is somewhat nutty, but there’s not much going on here. Probably a good beer for people who don’t like beer.

I really enjoyed reading the many entertaining comments and ratings left in regards to this beer. In fact, I enjoyed them more than I did the beer itself. I would actually rather drink ice water, yes, even with my Chinese food.

Poured lemon colour with a short white head. Aroma of boiled veges. Typical sweet corn adjunct flavour. Thin watery feel. Quite refreshing, be fine in the heat, but not my cup of tea i’m afraid.

Bottle. Pours light gold with a frothy white head. The taste is a light mix of hops and a sweet malt. Not much going on here, pretty lame.
