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.

Hazy, amber hue. Small, frothy, white head. Mostly lasting. Decent lacing. Heavy on the malt, but balanced nicely with the hops. Citrusy and fruity in the nose. Full-bodied. Fizzy. High ABV is well hidden. Creamy/oily mouthfeel. Slightly sour and spicy. Finish is spicy and slightly sweet. Aftertaste has an almost clover honey-like flavor to it, yet slightly sour and bitter. Great beer.

Large long-lasting head covering a dark, cloudy amber body. Doesn’t have the aged palate of some of its Belgian counterparts but does have a nice aroma and a slight candi-sugar sweetness. One of the better North American Belgian ales.

Mario D’Eer considers it as a Weizenbock and I can understand it - amber-brown colour, fine head, complex spicy, yeasty aroma and flavour, nutmeg, sweet, alcohol, honeyish and bitter, long aftertaste - a beautiful beer

Finally, something from Unibroue that didn’t dissapoint me, smells great, not as sickeningly sweet as others from Unibroue.

Clear foxy-amber beer; medium, fine and yellowish head. Strange chlorine-like smell, underneath cookies malt, some alcohol. Again signs of oxydation, even when the beer is less than 2 years old. Quite malty overall. FInishes quite sweet, with again a bit of alcohol and sweet bread or pastry. Warming up, a sourish note develops. Rather well-bodied, smooth, yet with some sparkling carbonation. It’s a nice beer in my experience, but, unless it has been standing under the spotlights, a bir of 8% ABV ought not to oxydize within 2 years.

Dark orange colour with big head. Sweet malty aroma with fruit and herbal notes. Fruity flavor but not as complex as the aroma.

Bottled. Amber coloured. Aroma of tea, yeast and berries. Sweet, yeasty and fruity flavour. Decent.
