13/11/2022. Can bought at Casino supermarche, Geant Sainte Marie, Noumea. Pours clear dark golden with a small frothy white head. Aroma is sweet, fruity, malty, citrus, grass, touch of herb and wet cardboard. Moderate sweetness and bitterness with a slight tart edge. Moderate body, quite watery and quite fizzy. Metallic clammy finish. The T20 World Cup final I’m following is intense, this beer really isn’t.

Les mantas sont donc, avec les Number One, les deux marques de pils produites en Nouvelle Calédonie. La première étant brassée par Le Grand Froid et la seconde une filiale d'Heineken, La Grande brasserie de Nouvelle Calédonie. La question sera donc de savoir quelles sont les moins pires bières, les Number One ou les Mantas. Voici donc la Manta Intense. N'allez pas vous faire d'illusions, celle-ci n'est pas réellement intense au sens propre. Le fait d'avoir retiré quasiment toute amertume et de l'avoir sucrée un peu plus la rende simplement un peu plus présente en bouche. Mais celle-ci n'en reste pas moins sans intérêt sur des arômes de céréales plats. L'alcool à 5,8 % n'est tout de même pas des plus déméritant, tout comme le visuel sur un joli blond doré limpide. Le final est néanmoins court. J'aurais peut-être dû commencer par la manta classique dont j'appréhende l'intensité de fait.

From a shared can at RBESG 2017 - Grand Tasting. Pours clear pale golden with a modest, white head. The usual grainy aroma with with cooked vegetables again as with the previous one - "Gold". Still far from great, but a bit more "enjoyable". [22nd of July 2017]

33cl Can at RBESG 17 Grand Tasting. Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma is medium sweet, light malty, some syrup, light grassy. Flavour is sweet but less so than the Gold, has actually some bitterness. Light bodied.

(Sample from a can at RBESG 2017 Grand Tasting) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet. Yet another pointless pale lager.
