Motörhead Coffee ‘Speedfreak’ Launching at Daytona Bike Week, Shot of Jack Not Included

Starting tomorrow at this year’s Daytona Bike Week, fans of caffeine and Lemmy Kilmister will see their worlds collide with the launch of a special signature coffee dubbed ‘Speedfreak’. And even if you’re unable to make it out to the raucous motorcycle-filled weekend event, you can still get your hands on these high octane beans.

Described by Concept Cafes as “the loudest, fastest, and heaviest coffee you’ll ever ingest,” this new blend apparently contains notes of dark chocolate, caramel, and cocoa amidst its coffee goodness. I say apparently because I don’t drink the stuff, but hey — to each their own. But when you describe a coffee as a “bold-bodied paint-peeling, face-ripper,” I just know that you gotta really be into coffee or Motörhead to get you a bag of this.

All joking aside, the folks at Concept Cafes said they were absolutely stoked to get to put a coffee together for Motörhead, having already done brews for Testament, Cannibal Corpse, and other iconic metal bands.

“We’re just humbly honored to be a very small part in the iconic Motörhead legend and share some freakishly delicious coffee with all the fans in the Motörhead universe! The ‘Speedfreak’ coffee concept came about when somebody (working on the project) literally blurted out a descript, and then the prologue really began kind of writing itself. The ‘Speedfreak’ Homeric epic spins a cylindrical dead man’s tale of the almighty Motörhead launching a custom ’75 Chevy Big-Block hot rod engine into the ether only to return as the monstrous ‘Speedfreak’ goliath 50 years later, fueled by coffee beans of an unknown alien origin, and propelled by the louder-than-everything reverberations from Lemmy’s signature ‘Murder One’ amp stack. Motörhead’s ‘Speedfreak’ coffee is more than just a cup of joe, it’s a no-brakes, hang-on-if you-can lifestyle; if it’s got wheels or motion, ‘Speedfreak’ will burn ‘em out!” 

All throughout Daytona Bike Week, there will be various Concept Cafes pop-ups that will let people get their hands on this special brew. The dates and locations for those are as follows:
