Monster of a beer, shrouded in mystery, brewed once a year. This beer is hopped quadruple-strength, and exoticly spiced.

"Batch 6714. This herb/spiced ale pours a dark brown color from a 12oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity, sweet, maple sugar and celery. A medium bodied ale. Malts are fruity and sweet. Lots of other flavors here as well; celery, figs, mint, touch of wood. There is a lot of different flavors going on in this beer. Touch of alcohol bite at 11%. Nice weird, and well. eccentric, beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet, touch of maple syrup. "

"Eccentric is right. I don't have a clue what is going on here because there's so much to it. I can say that it's a murky medium brown with an ok head. Wasn't much to look at, but the aroma and flavor made up for it. Lemon and oregano, maybe coriander stuff that I don't even now about. Some alcohol, but the rest of the ingredients keep it in check. Thick, slick mouthfeel. Weird, but I like it."

"Murky, muddy brown. Pour it out and you'd think a catfish could be swimming in it. Has absolutely no head, strong alcohol flavor. The taste has almost a vegetable-like flavor."

[4] Review by FoamDome from Alexandria, VA, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/28/2005 10:10:43 PM)
"Sampled at RFD Washington, part of Beer Gazetteer 2003. Cedar sawdust and sweet cinnamon "spice" the complex and heady aroma. The intriguing flavor profile includes cheese, caviar, and sardines. A hint of licorice is detected in the finish. A well-named ale, brewed annually on the last day of finals. "May not be the same every year, as some of the records are not real concise.""

[5] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/18/2005 9:59:05 AM)
"Pours with a murky brown body with no head or lacing. The aroma is sweet yet slightly sour with fruity/raisony notes, a touch of mint and a little caramel. The flavor is very sweet with dark fruit notes, some brown sugar and a touch of alcohol. Medium bodied, smooth and slightly warming."
