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.

This beer kept a nicer head than the La Fin Du Monde, brown in color with a little bit of an amber-ish tint, full bodied, the flavors included an undertone of sour veggies just like the La Fin Du Monde, spicy & yeasty flavors, fruity & malty aftertaste, these brews from Unibroue I guess just aren"t my bag

Bottle. Rating #666. Body is hazy and about the color brown of a hazelnut. Obnoxiously large Unibroue head that means you have to wait forever to get more than three sips in your glass. (I hate that and always take off one appearance point for it.) Aromas are earthy/nutty with some yeast, citrus and alcohol peeking through the cracks. Flavor is interesting. Classic Unibroue thin mouthfeel, but flavor goes beyond the thin alcohol burn that I have found in several of their offerings. I like the candi sugar/fig dark malt presence and how it balances out the earthy/yeasty flavors. A little bit of an alcoholic warmth, but nothing severe.

Une exellante bière forte avec une bonne mélange de saveur d’épice et de caramel. Pour dégustation seulement.

Murky brown with a light off-white slowly diminishing frothy head. Aroma of Belgian yeast, toasted malt and fruit. Taste of Belgian yeast, fruit, banana, bread, alcohol and toasted malts. Grainy texture with a dry and somewhat alcoholic finish.

330ml bottle, Quinns, 12th August 2007 (with Mes and Sim). Pours a cloudy brown with a sweet, toffee aroma. Flavour-wise, it’s sweet - a mix of caramel, warm alcohol and spicy apples. However, the palate is full first but then dissolves into a watery finish. Overall, I felt this was a beer that promised a lot, but ultimately does not deliver, when compared to the likes of Trois Pistoles, Westvleteren or St. Bernardus.

Rating update, 4/28. Tap @ Andy's. Mkobes gave me a good sample of hers. Big Maudite snifter. Nice fruity aroma. Flavor is an the sweet side, and malty. Better than the bottle that I had, so I have upped my rating slightly. Cloudy orange color. Pleasant, fruity aroma, with notes of raisin, and other mixed dried fruit. Thin body, pleasant fruity flavor. Notes of carmel. Overall not bad, but have had better for the style.

Ruby red pour with a soapy head that starts big but quickly diminishes. All kinds of spice in the aroma. Well carbonated over the tongue, easy drinking. No hint of alcohol. Very good stuff.
