[Doe in Heat](http://madtable.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/oso-doe-in-heat-300x160.jpg) lager. :eek: I honestly expected this to contain [Deer](http://pacificarcherysales.com/images/scent/4490.jpg) piss or some other kind of [hunting aid](http://images.cabelas.com/is/image/cabelas/s7_414143_999_01?rgn=0,0,1764,2000&scl=9.090909090909092&fmt=jpeg&id=2gCEuZaPhNyglg29AIj8hy). As frightened as I was to try it, I did buy a single bottle of it for $1.88 at Woodmans. It was just mediocre. Not horrifying but not really good either. Had some decent hop bitterness in the aftertaste. But it had a watery mouth feel and a soapy flavor to it. I gave it an overall rating of 2.1 out of 5 on [RateBeer.com](http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/oso-doe-in-heat/95299/4000/). But WTF is with that name? ---

Given the choice, I generally refuse to order any beer or wine with a “whimsical” name. It’s vaguely embarrassing and it also makes me feel like the type of person who chooses beers and wines _because_ they have cute names. Now, for some reason, it seems OK to me for hot sauces to have humorous names, but not beer or wine. ---

It is (I believe) the highest alcohol beer in the world. The high alcohol content is achieved by freezing (similar to eiswein). But the stuff is incredibly expensive (($5.76/bottle), and people tell me the taste is pretty bad. Anyone ever try it?
