A Seattle micro brewery did a recreation of this for Chinese new year. It was delicious.

Full disclosure, the brewery is owned by a friend of mine, but I have no financial stake in the company.

Yeah but because it wasn't Stamford it doesn't make it to HN, so it doesn't count, sorry.

the owners do lack a degree from Stanford, but the brewmaster/co-owner does have degrees in engineering from The University of Pennsylvania and UCLA.

This is awesome, do you know if it's still available? I'd love to get a couple bottles.

Unfortunately it was completely finished. They may be making it again next year. IIRC the cost of materials and time were much greater than their other beers, so it was a bit of a loss leader.
