I drank 180's alot of the time, then I moved onto another one called KroniK. Its pretty good, has a sort of fresca taste but not a horrible after taste either.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I had a small addiction to amp for awhile, but Ive tried to stay away from alot of caffeine (sp? fuck it). Its amazing the head aches you get from quitting caffeine.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Anyone ever tried "Go Girl"? I was at the store with my roommate a few weeks ago when he was looking to buy some stuff to keep him awake, and on a whim we both picked up a can of Go Girl. The tall slim can adorned in all shades of pink and red wasn't really too masculine, but it was late and we figured "what the heck" so we got it. Verdict: Taste is so-so, but I don't think it helped me stay up at all.
I want to try Bawls sometime just because it's so "popular", but I've never seen it sold anywhere. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Bawls is a bitch to find, even here in the Chicago suburbs. I've heard rumours of some convenience stores stocking it. This has proven true for the 7-11 on the Illinois Tech campus, but I've seen it nowhere else.
CompUSA sells it by the case, of course I don't always want to drive 30 minutes to get it. For LAN parties and such I'll go and get a few cases at once to maximixe trip efficiency, but the easiest places (internet cafes) I had to find it are either closed or not selling it anymore. It doesn't give me that much of a kick, but it tastes good and goes down easy, so what the hell. I was speaking idiomatically. |

I too subscribe to the theory that energy drinks are psycosomatic since caffiene and energy drinks on the whole do not seem to affect me. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I like Bawls (these jokes will never get old), because it's the closest I've ever seen an American drink get to the taste of Ramune.
That said, it really doesn't do anything for me energy-wise. FELIPE NO |
Never had Bawls, but Monster is pretty good tasting for an energy drink and it will keep me up for hours.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Monser. I try not to drink it too often, because well, your heart will explode. But I honestly do like the taste (especially when it's ice cold) and it certainly helps me stay awake on those crazy weekends with friends.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I hate to bump a dead thread, but does anybody know the levels of caffeine in Monster compared to say Red Bull or Bawls? I haven't been able to find any info online.
Second question, do you find that one particular energy drink keeps you awake longer than the others? I had a Monster Khaos the other day and it really didn't help much - but maybe that's just the mono kicking in... There's nowhere I can't reach. |
unf. I've got about 5 bawls in my closet right now. They're o.k. Redline is some powerful shit, though, it tastes like robotussin. How ya doing, buddy? |
I guess I would go with Rockstar. You get more for the same price as Red Bull and I think it gives you more energy.
Mountain Dew MDX is the worst though. My boyfriend drank them before work when he had to be there in the morning. He said it only worked for an hour and then he would crash. Most amazing jew boots |
All I need is a 12 pack of Jones soda and I'm pretty well happy and alert. I was speaking idiomatically. |
OK you'll need a case of Bawls to come down off of this one.. but buy 10 packages of bawls caffine mints, Some tux mints, Crush them up in a fine powder.. now here is the tricky part.. add some oil based liquid pour the powder in .. and yes you guessed it.. MAINLINE it... now I know what your thinking.. uhhh needles are for drug addicts slash where am I really going to find a syringe.. I have the answer for you. Go on a hobo killing rampage!! By the 40th one you'll have found a dozen needles and at least one pair of shoes you might want to wear. Plus you'll be doing your town slash city a favor by cleaning up the inhuman leeches of our society.. I also heard that they spread the AIDS. on a complete random note. I do not condone anything I have to say..

If it's all the same to you guys...I'm going to just stick to the corner 7-11. Anyone tried "Rip it?" Supposedly it blows the other drinks out of the water. I just hope it doesn't have that signature chalk/chemical taste that so many others do. FELIPE NO |
What??? I like my energy drinks.
And Rip It is in the mini cans correct? Most amazing jew boots

I think so. It's in the SoBe/Amp size cans, if memory serves correctly.
Just the other day at my first job, I saw someone with the most ungodly huge can of Monster on their desk. And she looked about 27-30, too. Secretary/help center, cubicle baby, 9-to-5er. What the fuck do they have their people doing in that office that necessitates a secretary getting that kind of stimulant intake? Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I've still yet to try most of the energy drinks out there today. But I have tried RedBull, AMP, Sobe Adrenaline Rush, and some other brand that simply calls their drink ENERGY.
Amp sucks. It tastes bad and a member of the Mountain Dew family of products. Adrenaline Rush is actually pretty good, for my tastes anyway. I've actually drank alot more of these than any of the other energy drinks I've tried. RedBull is so-so. At least it's better than AMP. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
The budwiser energy beer isn't that bad... Megatokyo should make one called B33R

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. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Believe it or not, I've found Bawls at Albertsons here...here being oregon

I'm so weaksauce. I drink packaged green tea and it keeps me up for hours.
I fucking hate finals. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I used some Jolt Gum a few weeks ago when I had to stay up all night to do a lab report that was due by 5:00 PM the next day. The stuff worked pretty well (each piece is supposed to be equivalent to half a cup of coffee) and half of a pack lasted me through the night, just had to chew one piece an hour. It's a good alternative for me since I tend to chug drinks and the gum tasted just like normal gum.

Albertsons now has their own generic energy drink that tastes, smells and works just like Red Bull (and many think it's made for Albertsons by RB) -- but it's like, .99 a can. I don't remember the name, but it has a cheetah on it.
