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.

Had this one with Japanese food. Fairly good aroma, half decent taste. Slightly hoppy and citrusy at the finish. I wouldn't buy it again, but not too bad.

I guess i had a fresh bottle has the nose was faint malt, no skunk around here. The taste says adjunct but the bitterness saves this beer, as it makes it crisp. Very light and bland body.

Head is initially small, fizzy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (grain, light bread), lightly hoppy (flowers). Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly bitter. Light to medium body, watery texture, fizzy carbonation. Reasonably clean and inoffensive, but unbalanced (sweet), adjuncty, and boring.

Clear, yellow/light orange, watery, medium white quickly dissipating head. Aroma mostly skunk, though there’s a bit of maltiness struggling through. Flavor starts out not bad at all, watery and thin but somewhat sweet and certainly less offensive than the nose; no obviously serious defects. Bit of sourness on the back end, and very quick to finish with a watery feel as it goes down. Certainly there are worse beers from outside of Europe and the North America; the question is, how many are better and is it worth my while to try to find out?

Bottle. Standard beer experience, just a little sweeter. Creamy white good mostly deminishing head. A little citrusnote in aro,ma. Short finish.

Hint of burnt rubber, along with grassy hop. The "skunk" was gone in moments. Medium gold color with a white head that filmed immediately. Sort of a barley malt sweetness, not thinking corn or rice at all. Unfortunately it is a little light on the bitter, and the finish does seem to have a hint of skunk. I’m a bit sensitized to that sort of aroma, because I used to work with mercaptans. Methyl mercaptan exploded all over me once. Whether it was light blemished or the skunk is natural, it is not a bad beer. Heck of a lot more character than many lagers.

Had a thick white head that didn't stay around. The smell suggests malt and hops, but still doesn't have a lot of flavor.
