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. Murky caramel brown with large frothy white head. Aroma of spices, Belgian yeastiness, light citrus, light floral, leafier herb, booze. Taste is big sweet caramel spices that ends with very mild bitterness. Also light caramel and floral in flavor.

ExpendableHero (518) - Florida, USA - MAR 27, 2010
I think of this as a novelty beer, a good one though. Pours a rich orange color with a nice off-white head. Scent is very complex: one of cloves, bananas/citrus and caramel. A novelty beer because the taste is so unique, tastes strongly of caramel and mixed fruits, most noticeably bananas and oranges. Tasty, but could have done better with less carbonation.

330 ml bottle. Amber body with a nice, dense off-white head. Quite strong aroma, caramel, candy sugar, dry fruit and some alcohol. Flavor is sweet, slightly roasted caramel, malt, brown sugar, spices and some alcohol. Nice flavor, maybe a bit to sweet for me.

750 ml, drink by May 2012. Poured into a tulip glass, it comes out about 50/50 beer and head. Reddish/amber color with slight haze. Fruity beer...seems to be a competitor of Chimay Red. It’s berries, oranges and apples rather than the darker stuff. Spicy, with some hops to dry it out. Sparkling body, alcohol doesn’t show, and neither does the Unibroue yeast which works against some of their other beers. Yummy.

rlaw (715) - Alabama, USA - MAR 17, 2010
Bottle. Pours a hazy dark amber with a medium sized off-white head. Flavor and aroma are full of fruit, honey, and lots of malt, plus that distinctive Belgian tang of candy sugar and yeast. Mouthfeel is a bit thin.

RickTStiles (504) - Rochester, New York, USA - MAR 16, 2010
UPDATED: APR 27, 2011 Pours dark amber with much sediment floating about. Aroma is wild yeast, overripe fruits (apple, peach, plum). Taste is very yeasty with brown sugar, dates and some hops. Very sparkling mouthfeel. finishes dry and warm. Wonderful

GJF (973) - Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA - MAR 16, 2010
Dark mahogony pour. Very yeasty, sweet aroma. The flavor is generally sweet with a good dose of yeast and dark fruits. A bit of alcohol in the finish. Lots of flavors here.

Poured a cloudy reddish brown with a off-white head. Aroma of sweet malts, dark fruits and a hint of alcohol. The taste had those same characteristics but was also a little watery and sweet (in a not so good way). Body was a little thin. This brew didn’t appeal to me very much.
