A major Chinese beer manufacturer has revealed it is investigating a video of a man allegedly urinating into a container of ingredients used to brew beer.
Tsingtao Brewery admitted that it was probing an incident at its Brewery Factory No. 3, after a video went viral on Chinese social media site Weibo of a man in a yellow hard hat and blue clothes urinating into a large container.
The video shows the as-yet-unidentified man climbing over a thin yellow wall, before seemingly unzipping his trousers and relieving himself in the factory, which lies in the Chinese city of Pingdu.
It is not currently known whether the man was an employee of Tsingtao, the second largest beer maker in China and one of the largest exporters of beer in the world.
An unnamed source told local media that both the person who allegedly urinated into the ingredients and the person who recorded the video were arrested by Chinese police.
Tsingtao said in a statement to investors on Monday that it had 'reported the matter to the public security authorities at the first opportunity. '
'The public security authorities are presently involved in the investigation. The relevant batch of malt has been completely sealed.
'The company has also explained the situation on Tsingtao Beer’s official Weibo. At present, the production and operation of the Company are normal in every respect!'
The incident has caused Tsingtao a major headache, with its stock price plummeting nearly 7% on the Shanghai exchange, before rallying for a net drop of 1.15% on Monday.

Asis does make good beers. Perfect with suishi.
Me play joke."...
TsingTao was founded by German in the days of the unequal treaties. The German’s ran the brewery until 1918 when they lost all colonial holdings
I am not sure there are many secrets to making beer, but yeah, I guess the point stands.
Ian McCollum has a whole series of videos of knock off firearms made in China for warlords.
My thoughts exactly. I detest beer.
But now I drink 7 ounces every night because beer and wine are recommended for your heart. Wine raises my blood pressure but beer does not.
BTW, the great book I read that considers beer a superstar food is Eat to Beat Disease, by Wm. Li, MD. All my friends are buying it too. Lots of surprises, like purple potatoes being superstars too. Etc.
I like beer.
Life is too short to drink CHEAP beer.
I hope you can find a beer that you like ... drinking something detestable will get old in a hurry.
Coulda been worse...
He could have poured a case of bud light into the ingredients.
So, “Duck” sauce is a typo?
That was the first joke I remember learning as a kid. My buddies and I loved that joke. Open the refrigerator door. Take out a coke. Drink some. Now put it back in the refrigerator. Shut the door. Ah me Chinese, me play joke

I agree. TsingTao has my go-to when I’m out having Chinese food. Never opened a bad bottle. Now, I’m not so sure.
