It doesn't give me that much of a kick, but it tastes good and goes down easy, so what the hell.

I thought that all 7-11s across the US stocked Bawls, making it fairly accessable. Since I go to a college in the middle of nowhere, I had to order my case off thinkgeek.com.
Bawls is good. Really good. I've tried other guarana drinks and have come to the conclusion that the fruit is just damn tasty. To me, Bawls is what soda should taste like. Coke and like products are just too... syrupy.
I had to drink some energy drinks at school because of the all-nighters and whatnot. I enjoyed Bawls the most, but Red Bull has its own charm--the unique taste grows on you. Unfortunately, though, the dorm vending machines forced one option on me in dire situations: Vault. Vault is gross. It's just sugar (like most other sodas, I guess).
Despite its good taste, I stay away from Bawls when I don't need the energy. It's no fun having to rely on a chemical for normal functions.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
