| 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.

This Canadian brewery really knows how to do it right. The aroma is truly Belgian...Bananas, yeast, spice. Nice. Flavor is malty and creamy and just great. Kudos again to Unibroue.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Opened it with the result that the cork exploted into my ceiling. High Fluffy white but relatively quickly disappearing head. Hary dark orange body. Complex caramel hops alcohol aroma with some kind of spices. Strangely sour caramel berries flavor with a good deal of carbonation.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a pretty pellucid auburn with a nice sized head that remains till the end. Aroma is slightly spicy and citrusy. Flavor is sweet with fig and dark fruits. Alcohol is VERY well hidden. This is a good beglian strong with some traditional flavors and good alcohol esters.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: MAY 28, 2008 2005-05-23. Lightly hazy dark amber body with a foamy beige head. Sweet yeasty aroma, mild spice. (7+) Alcohol grows as it warms, sweet malt flavour, mild yeast, dry alcohol in the finish (7+) Average plus palate. (3+). This was to be my definitive re-rate but I ended up talking instead of writing so I will hopefully come back to this again. 8/3/8/4/16 - 3.9 Bottle at C’est What
<P>July 2003. More mellow and complex than I remember previous tastings. I notice the spice and the malt predominantly with lots of interesting subtexts beneath it. 8/3/8/3/16 - 3.8
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: JUL 4, 2005 A hazy, reddish-gold color, Maudite has a strong fruity aroma and a doughy, yeasty taste. The alcohol is apparent. Very full-bodied, but leaves a bit too heavy of an old fruit flavor in the mouth. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp? Liquors, Oak Lawn, IL<font size=-1>
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Amber/orange. Malty aroma with some dough and yeast. Flacor is malty and makes me think of marcipan. Yeasty. Had this with my good ratingfriends rickgordon (thanks for sharing the bottle) and larsniclas, and they liked it better than i did.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Dark orange colour with big head. Sweet malty aroma with fruit and herbal notes. Fruity flavor but not as complex as the aroma.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
9th July 2006
Warning! Early amateur rating! Sweet and slightly caramelly beer. Only a little fruit. Traces of chocolate. Dry finish. Very nice.
