Tempest Red Eye Flight
“A red-eye flight is any flight departing late at night and arriving early the next morning. The term derives from the fatigue symptom of having red eyes, which can be caused or aggravated by late-night travel.”
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.
Pours a deep coffee black color with thick tan head. Coffee forward aroma. Cold brew and chocolate malt flavor, light to medium bodied.
Notes: on tap at the Craft Beer Corner, Köln Apr ‘19
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, kindly donated by Wendigo, many thanks. Dark brown color with medium beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, pepper, coffee. Taste, roasted malt, coffee, pepper.
Bottle. Malty aroma and taste, coffee, chocolate, light coffee sourness, light to medium bitter. Medium to full body, malty coffee bitter sweet finish. Ok.
Bottle at home tasting 03/2019, shared by Wendigo. Pours dark brown color, small beige head. Aroma of strong coffee, roasted malt, cocoa. Taste is sweet, lot of coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt.
Spettacolare Porter, dal gusto di cacao e caffè. Schiuma poco persistente, dal colore marroncino. In bocca risulta cremosa, avvolgente, lasciando l'aroma di caffè prima e cioccolato amaro dopo.
Bottle 33 cl avec une nouvelle et belle étiquette. Noire à petite mousse. Nez : café, malts rôtis, un peu de fumé. Bouche : "fort de café" moka, fruits secs, malts grillés, chocolat, quelques notes de réglisse. Carbonatation en dessous de la moyenne pour une vraie moyenne amertume mais toute en longueur. Bonne porter.
Birra porter dove il tostato ma soprattutto il caffè espresso è sicuramente in primo piano, sia nei colori che negli aromi e sapori, rimanendo equilibrata e morbida. Promossa!
Bouteille de 33 cl achetée sur Saveur Bière. Robe noire opaque avec une légère mousse brune. Arômes fortement chocolatés, chocolat noir et malts grillés. Texture huileuse, faible carbonatation, très fine amertume. Notes de caramel, chocolat noir et pain grillé. Fin sèche et longue portée sur le chocolat noir.
Bottle from Hopt. Heavy coffee aroma with roasted malt, mocha, beany coffee, espresso, some chocolate. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet with a moderate roasty bitterness. Body is medium. Very tasty Coffee Porter, strikes the right chord with me.

Kran w krakowskim House of Beer. Ciemne, ładna, trwała, ubita piana. Kawowe, palone, treściwe, alkoholowe w doznaniu. Jest chmiel, pełne.
Czarniutkie z brązową, niewysoką pianą. Wytrawny zapach kawy, czysty i przyjemny, trochę słodów palonych. W smaku jeszcze więcej kawy, wytrawnej do kwaskowej kawy. Piwo świetne, ale trochę płaskie, jednowymiarowe. Poza świetną kawą niewiele więcej tu jest.
Una Porter caratterizzata da un aroma intenso di caffè e malto tostato, buona la persistenza olfattiva. Al gusto si nota anche una punta di cacao, assieme al caffè e al malto tostato. Ben equilibrata e dalla consistenza media, riesce ad essere molto beverina nonostante la gradazione alcolica. Ottima.
A nice sweety dark beer with high percentage of alcohol. Really good choice for dark beer lovers.
My first porter. very rich and dark. 1 finger dark head. Mocha aroma. Strong stout
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
Porter du top 50 et je peux comprendre. Goût de grillé, café surtout, légèrement houblonné. Consistance un peu huileuse mais l'alcool ne se sent pas particulièrement (7,4%).
On tap @Luppolo Station (Rome). Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma beige media e persistente. Al naso note di mela verde, (acetaldeide) che copre ogni cosa, leggere note di caffè ed erbacee. In bocca va appena meglio, attacco dolce con finale appena amaro, ossidazione. Corpo medio, carbonazione soft. Non ci siamo.
Donkerbruin tot zwart bier met fijne mooie bruine kraag.
Aroma van asbak, sigaar, mocca, zwart geblakerde mout,
Smaak: sigaren & tabak, enorme hoeveelheid aan gebrande koffiebonen, cacao, espresso, droog.
Redelijke body met laag co2-gehalte, matig zoet met massa aan gebrande koffie bonen.
Bottled 0,33L. Dark brown deep color, lively and bubbly nut head of long duration. Very elegant aspect. Intence roasty and burned wood aroma, notes of alcohol, ashed malt, burned cereals, coffee, liquor. Pleasant prickly and crisp taste, intence roast malty and cereals palate, equilibrate roasty and alcoholic impression. Long bitter/sweet roasty cereals, caramel and coffee final.
Mörkbrun, nästan svart vätska med rejält brunt skum. Doft av mörkrost och lite choklad. Smak av detsamma. Förbannat bra porter!
0,33 flaske delt med Odd Gunnar og skibsrederen på TNBP, en hyggelig kveld sept-18: brunsvart med kort skum. Espresso, einer, furu, urter, en tur i skogen når det regner. Hint av tjære og aske. en karftig og god porter, men neppe å anbefale før man skal på rødøyeflyet (også kalt pysjamasflyet) kl. 0530.
Bottle shared with with OGJ and JMD at True North, Stavanger, 13.09.18. Ebony. Small beige head. Excellent aroma and taste of cigar box, ash, pine, tar and pine. Well balanced with bitterness.
Velvety texture, sweet cocoa flavour along with strong roasted coffee beans provide this with a lot of heft.
From Degustasur. In Teku glass. Playing Avernum 4. 7 months after bb date. Light coffee flavors, standing out more the roasted, chocolately notes. Nice and soft. To repeat fresher
