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.

Bottle. Pours hazy light brown with a small brown head. Aroma of yeast, dark fruit and brown sugar. Medium-full, crisp body. Flavor of yeast, apricots, brown sugar with earthy hops eventually kick in . Long, sweet, fruity finish. Very tasty brew.

The sweet malty smell of malts is smooth in the nose.the appearance is amber with a nice bubbly head. the flavor is delicious, that typical Belgian yeast comes throught smooth with pleasing sweet malts and earthy fruit notes. The body is bubbly as Unibroue loves to do.

Exceptionally well balanced for a strong ale. Sweet and rich tasting without being too thick or cocoa-like. I have nothing else to add that the other 1800 reviewers haven’t already said.

Konadrinker (31) - Florida, USA - MAY 28, 2010
A- Pours a nice cloudy amber orange with a large white head of 3 fingers which settles down a bit. Lacing stays throughout. S- Smells really nice, exactly what you would expect of this style. Wheat, yeast, and the banana and light spiciness. I also detected a smoky burnt wood aroma. Aromas combine together very well in a balanced mix. T- Tastes similar to how it smells, but definitely not as bold in flavor as I would have expected. Very nice balance again overall. D- Goes down easy with a light body, yet with plenty of flavor. Carbonation is light. Overall, I would definitely drink another of these.

arondee (364) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - MAY 25, 2010
Pours a dark mud brown color with a white head and very little lacing. Aromas are cherry, lemon, orange, and yeast/bread. Taste is lemon, yeast, lots of fruit and spices. I can’t taste the alcohol at all, it’s very well hidden. Very tasty and well made for the style.

dtborelli (322) - Sacramento, California, USA - MAY 25, 2010
Unibroue Maudite Pours medium brownish with a hazy appearance and a medium tan head. Good retention. Aroma of Belgian yeast and malt with a biting, slightly sour spice note. Smells very nice. Flavor is on the sweeter side with a nice malt backbone and a smoother finish than the other Unibroue beers we are sampling. Reminiscent of a Belgian Dubbel. Crispy mouthfeel. All hail French Canadians.

Glass at Winking Lizard Crosswoods. Hazy brown pour with a medium beige head. Citrusy (orange and lemon) and spicy nose with notes banana and caramel. Banana flavor up front with caramel malt and clove with some orange zest in the finish. Pretty good for the style.
