Shake off and wake up with our powerful and rich mocha porter, Red Eye Flight. It starts with our rich and roasty blend of seven malts, before adding in high-quality organic cacao and finishing off with a cold-infusion of Three Hills Coffee’s Sumatran coffee beans, roasted exactly to our specification. Crack one open to unleash a waft of fresh ground coffee aroma, followed by a smooth mouthfeel, and creamy toffee, coffee acidity, and bitter cocoa nib flavour.

On tap at Valhalla, Zagreb. Pitch black with tan head. Roasty, malty, nice deep coffee taste, dark chocolate, strong bitterness in finish. Dense. Medium bodied.

On tap at Craft Room, Opatovina Zagreb. Black, small lasting beige head. Coffee intensely present. Caramel, toffee, light chocolate. Some fruit and alcohol underneath. Very serious coffee character, getting that woody, slightly roasty, dry coffee flavours, like freshly brewed coffee and not coffee beans. Chocolate with liquor. Bitter dark chocolate with dark cherries. Coffee present throughout. Lasting dry finish. Good balance, good drinkability. No bitterness here. Very appealing. Quite different than your usual coffee stout.

Bottle at a tasting. Aroma evocative of chillies or paprika. Taste as well. Lol I literally almost taste nothing else. No coffee, nor cocoa. Not really enjoyable, unbalanced and feeling weird. Average.

Bottle from Pezinská pivná pumpa Pours dark chocolate with quickly disappearing head. And aroma and taste? Coffee, coffee, coffee. It's like you are chewing coffee beans. Very good
