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.

From bottle : Pours a hazy light color, big white head with great lacing. Very carbonated, almost feels like a champagne. Spicey taste, with some malts. Some alcohol on the end.

Dark redish brown with a rocky off white head. A lot of spice and sweetness yet very dry. Very good.

Damn tasty beer! From a small bottle--Poured a deep amber-brown-mahogany body with a creamy merangue off-whtie head. Big lacing. Spicy and chewy notes with a dry and balanced finish. Belgian yeast prevalent as well as a variety of spices. Great with chocolate and frut dishes. Complex and well-rounded.

Pours a translucent, reddish, root beer brown with a loose, frothy/creamy beige head that laces nicely. The nose is a forward Belgian yeast with notes of faint banana and light spice backed by a solid, malty, dark caramel note. The light-side of medium bodied, with creamy, tongue-coating effervescence, the mouthfeel finishes lightly astringent. Light alcohol on the exhale. The flavor follows the nose with spicy/fruity yeast and caramel with lesser notes of pear and apricot. A very tasty and "versatile" beer that would pair well with a lot of foods.

Bottle from The Beer Store. I am surprised that I haven’t had this earlier since I’ve always had access to it nearby. Poured wooden-brown into a trappist glass. This beer is all about spice. Has the signature Unibroue smell and flavour. Medium-bodied, with strong amounts of cumin, coriander, loads of malt & yeast. Oddly enough, one of my non-beer appreciating friends said it was the worst she had tasted, and another who favours Steam Whistle said it tasted like hot dogs... Craziness aside, this is a wonderful beer, and has become my third-favourite Unibroue beer.
