We present the very high energy (VHE, E>300 GeV) gamma-ray spectrum of the BL Lacertae object 1ES 2344+514. At a redshift of 0.044, distance 180 Mpc, it is one of five active galactic nuclei (AGN) detected by the Whipple collaboration. As is typical for these high frequency peaked blazars, the VHE gamma-ray emission is highly variable. On the night of 20 Dec. 1995, a single gamma-ray flare of 5.3-sigma significance was detected after which the source remained below detection treshold for over a year. Recently, the HEGRA collaboration measured a 4-sigma signal from 1ES 2344+516, making this a confirmed VHE gamma-ray source.
