330ml bottle sampled with Finn at The Hong Kong restaurant in Ipswich some hours after watching The Blues against Sunderland (3-1).
Pale yellow with nice clarity. White head fast diminishing. Nothing more in aroma than being refreshing. Flavour has sweetness of rice mix with some lemon in the end. By the way, very good food at this Chinese place (23.09.2006)

Bottle 0,33l. Clear golden coloured. A pretty white lasting head. Hoppy notes. Sweet flavour and no bitterness. An OK lager.

Bottled (from Carrefour Beijing) named Tsingtao Alga Green (4.0%). Clear radioactive menthe green with a very pale green frothyhead. Lightly grassy nose. Light bodied with rather crisp mouthfeel and actually some fresh hops. Low bitterness. Looks awful, but one of the better Tsingtao versions there is.

[Canned] Pale golden, dishwater-like head. Aroma of metal and vague fruits. Sweetish with dense mouthfeel. Notes of malt, rice and glue. The vaguest hint of grassy hops. Very light bitterness. A not too bad choice while drinking in China.

[Bottled] Dark brown, brief beige head. Striking coffee aroma. Sweetis with plenty of vanilla. Light bodied with clean mouthfeel. Coffee dominates, but there are some vegetables coming through. Low bitterness.

[Canned] Clear pale yellow, rich but fairly brief head. Papery malt dominates together with rice. The body is fairly light and the mouthfeel rounded. A surprising amount of grassy hops enhances the flavour and gives it it’s fair share of late bitterness. Better than most mainstream Chinese lagers.
