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.

Pours a dark copper with a two finger head that dissipates rather quickly to a thin lacing. Aroma is complex with notes of citrus fruits and spice. Nice palate. Flavor has notes of citrus present in the aroma and malt. Finish is clean and lasting, with the full spectrum of flavors present.

Bottle pours dark amber color with thin whispy off white head. Aroma is strong yeast smells. I also detect some alcohol. Has a medium mouthfeel with high carbonation that feels stinging on the tongue. Flavor is mainly yeast. Overall a descent strong brew if you like strong yeast flavors.

A very nice dark colour and not too much head. The taste is quite strong and a bit tingly on the tounge. There’s a hint of the strong alcohal taste and then fruit flavour.

341ml bottle in trappist glass. Pours amber-brown with medium fizzy head. Fruity aroma. Yeast as well. Quite carbonated on the palate. Great mouthfeel. Yeasty aroma. Alcohol is quite discrete for the amount. Quite dry on the finish. A bit fruity also. Tiny bit acidic on the finish. Maybe a tiny bit metallic as well. A bit cherry-ish also. Strong yeast taste that i don’t enjoy with the Trois-Pistole but that i enjoy with this one. Great beer ! Rating #36

Hazy amber towards brown look with a baige head. Very nice fruity yeast aroma with notes of toffee and alchohol. Flavor is complex, again with soft fruity notes, coriander spices and a warm alchohol. Great beer.

Bottle from BevMo. Nice Belgian strong ale. Deep reddish-brown appearance with a lasting off-white head. Aroma is yeasty with candi sugar, sweet malt, and dark fruits. Flavor is more of the same, very intense and complex. Well-spiced. Smooth, full mouthfeel and a long finish.

Brown/red pour with excessive foamy head. Yeasty nose with flavors of grape, citrus, spices. Sudsy, extremely warming ABV. I have no doubt this is a really good beer - yeasty/wheaty Belgian style is just not my thing.
