The Tsingtao Brewery was founded in 1903 by German settlers
in Qingdao, China.

Tsingtao Pure Draft was introduced in 1999 to target China's
high-end, premium beer market.

Pure Draft is currently sold in many of China's coastal cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong in addition to Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea.

In the summer of 2006, this stylish new beer was introduced
in select metro areas of the U.S. including Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, San Francisco,
and Seattle. Currently Pure Draft is now available nationwide.
