Chinese authorities are investigating after a viral video appeared to show a worker from Tsingtao urinating into a tank, believed to contain ingredients for its popular beer.

The clip has received tens of millions of views on social media.

The company said it alerted police immediately after the video came to its attention, adding that the batch of ingredients had been sealed.

Tsingtao is one of China’s top beer producers and its biggest exporter.

        Judging by your user name, I’ll assume that you speak Dutch. The Heineken factory in Den Bosch is near the Brabanthallen. For context: this is a huge congress hall (or rather: a complex of several halls) that used to be a cattle market. I once went there a few days after a large cattle market. You could still smell the cow piss. To this day I still maintain that it is no coincidence that the Brabanthallen and the Heineken factory are so close to each other. :-)
