Can. A hazy light yellow beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of water. The flavor is sweet with notes of brewing cereal, and metal, leading to a bitter finish. The body is light.

Medium brown head. Nearly opaque black body goes deep brown at edges. Caramelly metallic aroma with licorice and chocolate notes. Dry-sweet malty caramelly taste with roasty notes. Fullish body. Mild, soft, and fizzy mouthfeel with some heat. Dryish minty roasty licorice aftertaste with chocolatey toffee pudding notes. Nice, drinkable, mellow. (0.355l bottle, Wellcome, Lohas Park, Hong Kong. Also shared by hcalsos.)

0.64cl bottle at Chinese restaurant, 4.7%. Clear pale yellow with small but fine head, short lasting. Nose is a bit skunky. Aroma is straw, rice and some malts. Tastes rather sweet, modest sour, very light hoppy finish. Light body, average carbonation. Overall sweet and easy to drink. OK with Chinese meals, may be not exciting drinking it alone.

Ok, this is one of the stranger rates I’ve made. Anyway, after first trying a German export "version", I’ve bought another bottle in a Chinese shop in Zagreb, with the importer’s sticker reading 4.5%, but what always bugged me that, underneath, the original sticker (that I saved) seemed to claim otherwise and now I can say safely that it says 3.1% and 8°. The label is the same as the regular Tsingtao so it goes here. GTIN - 6901035603751 Rating from 21.12.2005, copypasted in its’ full glory, split from the regular Tsingtao entry rating with all the mistakes and references: Guess they send the good stuff to Germany. This was horrendous. Pale yellow colour, big fluffy white head. Very faint malty aroma. The taste is... nasty, watery, of course, with a healthy dose of something odd, artificial and out of place. A mixture of paint, formaldehyde, old markers, dentist mouthwash and kitchen cleanser. Wonderful, eh ? The worst beer I’ve had the opportunity to taste. Thankfully, no aftertaste. I’ll go with an average between these two versions (rounded down). (2/1/1/1/2)

At Papsoe’s pre CPH Beer Fest tasting, cheers Henrik! Pale gold beer. Crisp with a little bit of malt. The barest whisper of hop. Drinkable but not clever!

At Papsoe’s pre CPH Beer Fest tasting, cheers Henrik! Very pale gold beer. Watery malt, not much else. Crisp is the only good thing about it!
