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.

Sweet, citrus aroma. the head vanished in a heartbeat. Tangy taste in the beginning followed by wheaty aftertaste. Definitely white-ish. Reminds me of Great White but zestier. Dark amber color, super bright floral taste. Almost wakes me up how bright it is. Damn. Good.

patachou (7) - Quebec, CANADA - APR 30, 2013 does not count
Arôme plutôt légère pour une bière de cette force et avec un goût assez prononcé. Superbe couleur, mais très troublé. Cependant, le collet de mousse est, selon moi, constitué de trop grosse bulle, ce qui le rend moins élégant. Le goût est prononcé, mais à la fois doux et rempli de subtilité. Bière plutôt sucré, mais très boisé. Bonne sensation en bouche ce qui lui donne un impression beaucoup plus douce qu’il n’y paraît. Selon moi, c’est ce qui se rapproche le plus d’une bière quasi parfaite.

Smoothsippin (19) - Wisconsin, USA - APR 22, 2013
Pours a cloudy amber with a beige head. Slightly sweet on the nose. Smooth into the mouth with a sweet/spiced swallow. Very little bitterness. Nice crisp finish/aftertaste. Tastes a bit like a brown ale to me, it more complex with a smooth delivery, but not heavy. Very good. Will have again.
