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.

Dense and deceiving pour - leaves the bottle as any other liquid would, but the thickness makes for an appealing aesthetic. Thick, lingering head with generous lacing. Cloudy appearance throughout with a lighter overlay displaying a sort of gradient at the top of the glass. Light and springy aroma sure to complement any hearty meal due to its Sweet and delightful taste with very little underlying bitterness. Leaves the lips with a slightly sticky sheath and touches the touch with a pang of sweetness and spice.

12 oz. bottle into a tumbler. Purchased at New Grocery and Deli. Aroma of overripe dark fruits. It makes me feel like I’m in a stone garden surrounded by vines. Slightly malty n the aroma as well. Medium brown appearance with a thick creamy head that dissipates to almost nothing quickly. Very creamy and fruity. Leaves an almost whipped-cream like feel in your mouth after drinking. Very smooth and enjoyable taste. Good balance. Carbonated yet smooth palate. Defnetely drinkable, while still providng lots to ponder and enjoy. Hghly reccomended.

Bottle. Poured a cloudy brown color with a one finger off white head. Aroma of spices and yeasty notes. Flavor was sweet with spice and some sugar, and fruity notes too. Good beer.

Strykzone (2906) - Wood River, Illinois, USA - NOV 15, 2008
Pours a medium brown with an off white head of tiny bubbles. Aroma is nutmeg and yeast. Faint spices. Flavors are clove and spice. It is very earthy and has just a bit of fruit flavor. Pepper spice that zings the tongue. The zing builds as it warms. Moderate alcohol taste and warming. Another nice beer by Unibroue.

Simply amazing! Poured an amber color with a slightly orange hue. Lots of tiny bubbles exploding from the clear body. Head is made up of millions of bubbles, but has a smooth, creamy texture. Aroma is packed! Extremely well-balanced between sweet malts, caramel, citrus, and alcohol. Taste is very similar. This beer is very similar to a Belgian tripel, but balanced equally with a nice malty richness. Palate is lively and smooth, but has a bit of a short finish. Overall, a tremendous beer! To date, a top 5 in my opinion!

dark brown hue that is extremely murky. Small off white head that is mostly diminishing. Aroma is of bread - 12 grain bread or whole wheat in particular, lots of yeast in the nose as well. Smells a little sour as well because of the strong citrus scent. Boozy beginning to the taste, and its followed by a small sweet taste in the middle, almost like a fruit tart. Sweet and a little bitter on the finish. Lively carbonation, with a light syrupy palate. A very good beer! Unibroue once again does not disappoint. Vive les quebecois! C’est un biere qui est gout-bon!!
