One of the most popular drinks in China is beer. The one type of beer that the Chinese are most proud of is QingDao beer.
During World War 1 Germany occupied the current city of QingDao on the East coast of China. One of the fortunate blessings that grew out of that occupation was the German's fascination with beer. Over many years that Germans passed on the recipe of good beer making to the Chinese in QingDao. From then on, QingDao became the beer producing capital of China.
It is no wonder that the Chinese are proud of the popularity of QingDao beer. The Chinese have seemingly perfected what the Germans engineered. At just 50 cents (USD) a can, it is easy to see why it the most popular beer in China.
