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.

Hazy brown-amber color. Fruity and spicy character. Mixture of oranges, apples, cloves, yeast, earth and dominant alcohol flavour. Aftertaste is acoholy fermented fruity taste with sour component. Champagne carbonated. Creamy body.

Crushed with Jakebra. Nice bouquet. Nothing wrong with this brew. Very nice color and flavor. Some cloviness and some fruitiness and some awesomeness.

Just picked up Neal Stephenson’s "Anathem"; figured I should get a big Belgian ale and start the next four months off properly. Pours dark, almost opaque amber into the wineglass. White foam with small, shiny bubbles. Classic strong Belgian aroma - part cider, part champagne, part Autumn leaf pile and musty monk cellar. Incredibly smooth - mouthfeel a little fizzy and oily, very intense smoky/woody high notes, amplified by the alcohol, without that big middle bitterness I generally associate with strong Belgians.

Spicy clovey leather nose, hints of candied apples. Soapy head, deep hazy amber with some hints brown. Lightly sweet sassafras honey, tons of spice, light orange pith bitterness, some tart notes. Huge carbonation, explodes like eating an Alca-Seltzer (in a good way), creamy body, complexly bitter finish that actually flirts with being crisp at the very end, with the exception of a subtle alcohol burn. Another solid beer from Unibroue.

(Bottle). Aroma is spicy and fruity sweet. Orange brown with off-white non-lasting head. Flavor is pleasant enough, but not especially complex....mostly sweet and fruity, with little finish.

Pours with a large, off-white, quickly diminishing, head that still has good retention. Hazy brown-gold body. Aroma is candi sugar, cardoman, clove, apples and pepper. Taste is yeast, spicey, and sweet. Dry mouthfeel with very lively carbonation.
