  We present the analysis of FEROS commissioning spectra of 3 giants in the
metal poor cluster Be 21. One of the giants has an exceptionally high Li
content, comparable to the original Li in the solar system. These objects are
very rare (only a handful are known), and this is the first Super Lithium Rich
giant (SLIR) discovered in an open cluster. The reasons for such a high Li
abundance are unknown: it could be the result of a short lived internal
process, or of accretion from external sources, the former being slightly more
likely. From the spectra, the metal abundance is also derived for 3 giants,
giving a mean of [Fe/H]=-0.54 +/- 0.2 dex, in good agreement with recent
photometric estimates, but substantially higher than estimates previously
obtained.
