Tsingtao Brewery

Pale Lager·China·4.7% ABV·One of 339 Pale Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Tsingtao Classic Lager's malty and dry character. Tsingtao Classic Lager is the brewery's flagship, brewed in Qingdao from water, malted barley, rice and hops and given a long fermentation. It pours pale gold with lively carbonation. The nose shows grainy malt, light floral hops and a touch of sweet corn from the rice. On the palate cereal and bread crust meet herbal and citrus notes, followed by a dry, crisp finish with a faint grapefruit-pith bitterness and a lingering hint of barley sugar.
