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.

from 750ml bottle - need to find my notes from the Unibroue tasting at my local supermarket. Always a favorite at my house.

Poured a hazy orange with white head that dissipated quickly. Very malty aroma with hints of dark fruits and a little bit of citrus. Typical of Unibroue, it is over carbonated. The flavor was sweet and it went down really easy.

Cloudy golden color with a carbonated fizzy tan head that dissipates quickly. Strong citrus malt aroma with a blandish citrus flavor with spices and tongue tickling carbonation. Sweet flavor and carbonation hang around after this medium bodied drink is finished.

Cloudy amber. I’ve had this before, but not in a long time. The aroma is almost like a cross between a good saison and a sour, very earthy. The flavor is bitter and sour all at the same time. I think this is the most complex beer that is in the normal Unibroue line.

Bottle, Ale Cellar, Darlington. Seem to recall having this at Quinns years ago; It didn’t make a lasting impression then and was similar on this occasion too. Poured a muddy orangey brown with a thin tan head. Spicy, yeasty,fruity aroma. Flavour slightly cloying with caramel, yeast and alcohol which overwhelms the spice. Something slightly clumsy and boozy about this which just isn’t that enjoyable. Won’t be seeking out again.

bottle, medium amber color, large longlasting head, yeasty fruit nose, sour cherry and clove flavors rounded out by a dry cocoa and fruit finish

Looks great in the glass - light hazel with mild carbonation, a white head the goes away quickly. Aroma is mild but dominated by coriander, clove and citrus (the 3 Cs you shouldn’t have in a beer). Tastes malty, creamy and thick at first but finishes dry, sticky and slightly bitter. Good, but not my first recommendation.

750 ml. bottle. Head of small bubbles, lingering, nice brownish orange color, good yeasty nose, complementing other fruit and spice aromas, light in the mouth, with good carbonation. Finishes slightly sour.
