Commercial Description:
In November 1992 Maudite (the damned one), was the first strong beer to be distributed in Quebec grocery stores. Maudite is a mahogany-colored, rich-tasting premium beer that has a distinctive, complex taste. Because of the warmth it releases, this strong character beer must be served cool but not cold. Perfect with pasta, red meats, stews and spicy dishes, it also makes a good aperitif and after-dinner drink.
Maudite has a typically Quebecois name that is reminiscent of the legend of the Chasse-Galerie (the legend of the Flying Canoe). Legend has it that a group of lumberjacks struck a deal with the devil to fly home in their canoes, guided by Satan himself, to make it home in time for Christmas.
Gold medal winner in 1995 and 1996 and the Chicago Beverage Tasting Institute.

Bottled and poured into a tulip glass. UM pours muddy with a largish head that looks very appetizing. The nose is sweet with green raisins but also a touch of lima bean. The taste is nicely mild with a high carbonation content. A pleasant fruitiness dominates. The finish is full-bodied and lingers for just a few moments.

Cloudy deep brown in appearance with a fully diminishing off white head. Buttery, oaky nose. Maybe I got a bad bottle, but the aroma was weaker than I expected, although it did open up over time. Robust yeasty, malty flavor with strong alcohol. Carbonation was a bit more fizzy than I like.

Pours a deep amber color with a thick white head that quickly goes away. Very bubbly with carbonation. Malty taste. Very good.

Brown color in the glass. Very smooth. Nice level of complexity with fine carbonation and a bit of spice. I enjoyed this one.

750ml bottle from Kenny Road Market in Columbus, OH. Pours cloudy mahogany with a thin white head. Strong yeasty aroma (like all Unibroue ales) with a slight note of spiciness. The taste is pleasantly fruity and malty, and the carbonation leaves a nice tingle on the tongue.

Big and malty. Would be great with stew or soup to wash away the alcohol. Very warming.

On tap. Hazy orange brown pour with a foamy tan head. Aroma is nutty, dusty, caramel, prunes. Flavor is caramel, nutty, bread, yeast, brown sugar. Quite good!
