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.

750mL bottle from the LCBO. Pours dark red with a good-sized head. Quite smooth and rich. A good example of how to brew a good Belgian ale. Doesn’t require six months of cellaring in the way that Chimay Red does. Very nice.

Big yellowish beige lasting head. Brown hazy body with suspended yeast. Peppery yeasty spicy aroma with fruity notes. Sweetish spicy chalky fruity taste with peppery banana notes. Sharpish mouthfeel. Apple and licorice notes, as well as grains of paradise. Very good! Ɛ.33l bottle, SuperValu, Dublin.)

Deep aroma of dark fruit (figs, plums) and sweet malt. Flavor is very much like a trippel or a quad.....sweet candy sugar and dark sugary fruits. Very carbonated in the mouth...great alcohol warming, especially at warmer temperatures. Overall a very delicious beer, particularlly during winter.

Bottle. Rating #666. Body is hazy and about the color brown of a hazelnut. Obnoxiously large Unibroue head that means you have to wait forever to get more than three sips in your glass. (I hate that and always take off one appearance point for it.) Aromas are earthy/nutty with some yeast, citrus and alcohol peeking through the cracks. Flavor is interesting. Classic Unibroue thin mouthfeel, but flavor goes beyond the thin alcohol burn that I have found in several of their offerings. I like the candi sugar/fig dark malt presence and how it balances out the earthy/yeasty flavors. A little bit of an alcoholic warmth, but nothing severe.

Pours with a fair head and a cloudy orange color. Has a fruity aroma with a slightly acidic citrus flavor. Some overtones of alcohol in the finish. A decent brew.

Bottle. Pours mahogany, white head disperses quickly. Fruit earthy aroma with some yeast. Nice spicy fruit flavour not too sweet. A fine beer.
