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.

Poured golden brown with a medium, bubbly head. Started with a sharper fizziness that mellowed later. Fruits tasted were grape and cherry in the malts and some citrus/orange peel and spiceyness/corriander. A nice hop contributed dryness and balance. This is devillishly good. (My 666th rating on Friday the 13. 12/13/2002)

A dark mahogany stain with a lifting aroma. A very warming beer to have on a cold night. Top class.

JonMoore (1573) - Loughborough, Leicestershire, ENGLAND - FEB 6, 2005
Hazy amber colour with a slim off-white head. A sweet orange peel aroma, with some coriander. Flavour is fruity and malty, slightly woody. Pretty drinkable for its abv A good interpretation of the style, athough after the aroma I was a bit disappointed on the flavour front.

Bottle at Yeoman’s Road Pub in Tampa. Another fine offering from Unibroue. Well balanced sweetness and elegantly masked alcohol.

Bouteille Janvier 2005, possède l’ancien format de bouchon de liège. Couleur ambrée, énorme mousse blanche concassée composée d’une multitude de bulles de calibre allant de fins à moyens. Épices en quantité, phénols, fines agrumes, style clémentines, régie par une signature de levure à la fois’Unibrouesque ’et belge. Devient plus floral en se réchauffant, parfums de gomme baloune, toujours très épicées se dirigeant vers anis et réglisse noire en finale. L’alcool se manifeste d’avantage et nous réchauffe vivement. Effervescence extrême aux fines bulles piquantes se maintenant au fil des gorgées. Les houblons qui demeuraient jusqu’à présent discret ressortent maintenant davantage mais sont difficiles à isoler. Corps d’épaisseur semi mince à moyenne. Une agréable re-découverte québécoise après quelques années d’abstinence.
