Craters of the Sac is a semi-official mp3-only album by Ween. Because Elektra Records stole Paintin' the Town Brown from Ween, which was to be their first online independent release, Dean Ween leaked the "album" to the Internet in 1999 to succor their fans and show them how much Ween appreciated them. Consisting entirely of almost colossally bizarre studio cuts that may never have even been intended for album release, it's less an actual album and almost more along the lines of a bootleg compilation. Although it appears in Ween's chronology as being released after Paintin' the Town Brown (1999) and before White Pepper (2000), at least one song ("Put the Coke on My Dick") came out of the Mollusk sessions of 1997.

The band, to this day, while knowing fans have this album, and acknowledge it in passing, still do not take responsibility for its appearance on the Internet. However, it has been rumored by the band, that one day fans may see the appearance of Craters II: Back to the Sac.

The tracks "Big Fat Fuck", "How High Can You Fly?" and "Monique the Freak" also appear on Ween's 2005 album of unreleased tracks, Shinola, Vol. 1.
