Prepare your taste buds for battle—GWAR has teamed up with Concept Cafes and Coterie Coffee Co. to bring you a brew as brutal as their music and stage show: BERSERKER MODE COFFEE!
Roasted high on a pyre of smoldering destruction, Berserker Mode is a bold, bodacious java, savagely sticky with muddy molassesness and foul-fruited candy sweetness—a real teeth-grinder of a roast. This isn’t your average morning pick-me-up. This is coffee forged in legend, powered by Blothar the Berserker’s grievous wrath, and brewed for only the mightiest of warriors.
According to ancient lore, Blothar the Berserker—frontman of the greatest shock rock band in the history of the universe, GWAR—once roamed the icy seas in a Viking longship. Lost and alone, he was lured by a green, split-tailed mermaid, her siren song calling him to the Indonesian archipelago. But his love was unrequited, and in his sorrow, Blothar wept like a 1000-pound baby.
From his bitter tears, coffee plants sprouted across the land of Java. And thus, Berserker Mode Coffee was born—a heady and powerful drink, crafted to fuel his rage before battle. Historians may claim Viking berserkers were jacked up on psychedelics, but GWAR knows the truth: it was coffee that drove them to insane battle-lust!
Blothar the Berserker says: “The best part of getting blackout drunk is Berserker Mode Coffee. Each sip is infused with the bitter sorrow of unrequited love and that nagging feeling that something really weird happened last night. Berserker Mode Coffee is a savage brew fit for shock rock royalty. I sure feel like the King on my throne after sucking down a pot.”
Now, for the first time, GWAR’s Berserker Mode Coffee is available to the masses. Whether preparing for battle, a brutal mosh pit, or just another soul-crushing day at work, this high-octane, savage roast will awaken your inner berserker.
Mike Tonsetic of Concept Cafes shares “My first intro to Gwar was 1992, freshman year of high school, when my girlfriend’s older brother showed up to school one morning in a white tee covered in fresh steamy Gwar-gasm, obviously from a show the night before; he was obsessed and made us watch bootleg VHS concerts. LOL. I just remember (if memory serves) Oderus going straight up ‘Omen’ on JPII (the Pontiff) with a giant crucifix and I was like WTF…I’m hooked on the atomic crack and have been ever since!!! Think the raddest part in the opportunity to collab with Gwar is the fact that not only are they one of the OGs of shock, but they’ve taken it to a whole other level, time & time again, over a legendary career; something we absolutely respect and admire, and strive to incorporate into everything we do.”
