Chin Brewery History: Tsingtao Beer

The Tsingtao Brewery was founded in 1903 by German settlers in Qingdao, China. Since its introduction, Tsingtao® Beer has enjoyed impressive sales growth and has always been the number one beer in China. Introduced to the United States in 1972, Tsingtao soon became the top-selling Chinese beer in the U.S. market and has maintained this leadership position ever since.

Tsingtao® Beer is brewed and bottled by the Tsingtao Brewery, the largest and most prestigious of the approximately 600 breweries operating in China. The Tsingtao Brewery itself has grown from four breweries in 1996 to 48 today. The Tsingtao brand is sold in more than 40 countries worldwide and accounts for more than 80 percent of China’s total beer exports. In fact, Tsingtao is the number-one branded consumer product exported from China.
