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.

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.

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.

Bottle. Nose is very musty and reminds me of mildew. Notes of spice, raisin, malt, and cherry come through. Finishes thick.

Nice dark amber color with an off-white, tannish head. Hints of spiced fruit in the aroma and taste. Good feel.

Re-Rate -- Aged 2 years takes on very dry crisp characteristics and muted Unibroue yeast flavors. 8/5/9/4/17 = 4.3. Pours a deep amber into a tulip. Frothy head with fine bubbles. Dough, bread and hay aromas. Cherry flavors and full bodied. Abrupt finish. 7/5/8/4/16 = 4

Reddish brown, hazy colour. Medium head. Somewhat yeasty aroma with a little bit of toffee and citrus. Sweet and warming flavour. A pleasant but not outstanding beer.

750ml from Total Wine, Durham. Absolutely massive pour, with a full 80% of the glass foaming up initially. Nice looking mahogany body with that lasting head/retention. While this isn’t the top of Unibroue’s offerings, I do appreciate the fact that they stretch a bit here in offering something that’s a bit more piquant and fruity than some of their other brews. Slightly bitter at the start but with warming citrus and darker fruits giving a lasting finish. This is quite nice.

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.
