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 at a local chinese resteraunt. Wasn’t all that impressed but it wasn’t bad overall. If it was a choice between this and something like bud or mich on the menu, I would either choose this or water.. depending on what I was eating at the time.

Light bodied with peculiar, different sweet flavour. Still, nothing special.

Straw color, thin head. Bland but not bad. A microscopic trace of fruityness and a little bit of hops. Thankfully, not a trace of skunkiness unlike other imported pilsners.

Very pale yellow hue, shy foamy head, skunky smell at the opening of the bottle, pale malt, mild floral accent, maybe hint of vanilla in the nose, follows through on a light-medium bodied palate, with crisp pale malt, touch of soft maltiness, in very light hoppy finish.

Drinkable Chinese lager, better than some Asian contemporaries but not particularly satisfying. Straw colour, short vanishing head. Bit more aromatic hops than is typical for the region. Quenching palate. This at least has some bitterness. (Bottle)

I wonder if this style of beer is easy to produce. I ask because it appears all over the world in a variety of guises, from North America, Europe, South Africa, Australasia and South Asia, all tasting very similar to one another. This one’s not bad.

OK, but average brew. Not much hops in either aroma or taste. There are thousands of brews just like this---but it’s fun to drink Chinese.
