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.

PhillyBeer2112 (2328) - Oviedo, Florida, USA - MAR 31, 2001
UPDATED: JUN 29, 2004 Highly malty and yeasty in both aroma and flavor. Somewhat mild for the style though, making it easier to drink than its cousin Le Fin du Monde. Very cloudy orangey-amber perhaps would be lighter if not for the plethora of suspended yeast. Very foamy. Lightly spicy and yeasty aroma. Fizzy palate with mild sweetness. Mild notes of berries. Yeasty finish. Not amazing but nicely estery.

NoiZe (2325) - Amersfoort, NETHERLANDS - JUL 21, 2006
Amber/brown coloured brew. This one has got a good flavor, nice balance between sweetness, sourness and bitterness. Yeasty. Overall nice.

Indra (2323) - Overland Park, Kansas, USA - DEC 11, 2002
UPDATED: JAN 24, 2003 Incredibly appetizing fruity, musty, yeasty aroma. Tap version shows some even more pronounced banana and spice. Opaque medium red-brown color with some sedimentation and robust frothy head. Carbonation is quite suiting, just lightly bubbly and creamy. Initial taste is intensely fruity maltiness, followed by a slightly tart/spicy and fruity, yeasty aftertaste. Hops are somewhat subdued, leaving the malt blend to dominate. This is by no means a bad thing, the malt flavors are very nice and offer some complexity. Just a solid Belgian style beer.

Schroppfy (2319) - Łódż, Warsaw, Poland; Michigan, Ohio, USA - FEB 10, 2002
I’m somewhere between the concensus rating and ecrvich’s comments here. Smells good, and has many of them. The comparisons to Aventinus or a similar clovey weizenbock are excellent, and this brew’s fruitiness is nice, not overbearing. Yeastiness is nice, but somehow it doesn’t have the body to support fully the initial sweetness and the lingering dryness...it’s, well, watery. Still very good.

TheGrandMaster (2308) - Auckland, NEW ZEALAND - DEC 24, 2008
Bottle (in NZ). A gusher, but finally poured with a hazy copper hue and a large foamy head. Plenty of alcohol on the nose, along with toffee and hints of tropical fruits. Fruity and yeasty, with warming malt on the palate, and an underlying spicyness.

Wining & Dining Tasting. Poura an almost clear with risnig bubbles and white head. Sweet with aroams of sugar, Belgian yeast and orange. Also floral hints and hints of acacia honey. Full bodied.

rederic (2271) - montréal, Quebec, CANADA - SEP 20, 2005
Deep orangey-amber hue, with a frothy white head, with spicy coriander, orange peels, nutmeg, yeasty aroma, follows through on a medium-bodied palate with spiciness, orange candied note, fruity accent, alcoholic warmth touch, leading towards a Grand Marnier liquor finish.
