Tsingtao (for export) isn’t too bad. That’s because it used to be a German port a long time ago.

Some African beers are good for the same reason.

If you go to some of the islands in the Caribbean - Dominica, Antigua, St. Kitts, etc. - they all have their own local lagers that are really terrific and which you can’t get anywhere else.

For some reason, the same beers in China have very little alcohol, like maybe half the level Westerners are used to. Even Tsingtao is watered down. I don’t know whether it is a government thing or not, or whether people are more just drinking beer because it is cold and safe to drink. As a Westerner you can’t drink the water in restaurants, and it is usually a choice between ordering beer or soda.
