Unibroue Maudite

Brewed by Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Chambly, Canada

Pours rich red with a fluffy white head. Strong aromas of stone fruits; the flavor is very well balanced, fairly sweet, with flavors of fruit and malt. Slight dryness when cold builds into a pleasant sweetness. Excellent.

I love Unibroue. About 10 years ago I was introduced to their beers and I fell in love. Not like a mother loves her child...it’s much more than this. At first they were not so easy to find but through the years they have been easier to locate. I was surprise to find them in our local Publix grocery store!

Probably the best beer I’ve ever had. Had to leave a little wiggle room in case I’m wrong. I will definitely be seeking out other Unibroue offerings.

A terrific beer. This, while being a belgian-type ale, appeals to those of us who enjoy the qualities of British ales - while remaining faithful to the complexity, thickness, and malty sweetness of a belgian double. This is one of Unibroue’s best offerings.

Pours cloudy magnificent orange with a mediujm tan head that shows beautiful lacing on the glass. Nose is orange, apricot, honey. Flavor of honey, peppery yeast, apricot, orange peel. Fairly sweet and malty. Finishes crisp, flowery, and light. Alcohol is mildly and pleasantly present. As it warms a funky, musty cheese flavor comes towards the end of the swallow. I love it love it love it.

This is one beautiful beer. I first tried it while on vacation with my girlfriend in Quebec. I had heard good things so I decided to try it. It has now become my all time favorite beer. Theres no greater feeling than popping the cork off a large bottle of Maudite. The crisp sound of cork is a taste of things to come. The beer pours Mahogany coloured, and it’s aroma is next to none. The aroma is yeasty and mouthwatering. The head is a good size, and doesnt stick around to long either. The palate is a smooth texture rich texture and the taste is a complex blend with a perfect arrangment of yeasty, spicey, and fruity tastes. At 8% alc. it’s a fairly strong brew, but you hardly notice is as the alcohol is mostly masked. This is a blessing in some ways, just don’t try to stand up too fast after you’ve had a generous amount of Maudite. All in all, best beer I’ve ever had. The label is beautiful too, and has an entire legend behind it. It makes a great conversation piece aside from a beautiful bottle. Unibroue has done it again!

This is a very good Belgian style ale. When I first drank it, it was a bit cold and it tasted just like New Belgiums Abbey (which to me is so-so). I was slightly disapointed, but that all ended once I let the beer warm up a bit. Once it warmed all of the nice spicey/fruity tones started to pull forward. Also, this beer is a moderate 8% but everytime I drink it I seem to catch a good buzz quite quickly when compared to other 8%+ brews. I really enjoyed the authentic belgian style head this beer produces when poured. I like.

Beautiful bronzy ,orange pour. Tall head, laces well. Aroma fights between spices and toffee. Wonderfully smooth on the palate. This beer has great flavor.Good desert beer for after a meal.
