Dark Thunder Ultra Berry

November 25th, 2023

I’m wondering if this ‘ultra berry’ flavour replaces the ‘berry boost’ variety? It’s been so long since I tried berry boost that I can’t remember quite what it was like. I described it in my review as ‘like a mixture of strawberry and raspberry’, so perhaps Ultra Berry is a very different flavour. It’s more like a mixed berry, but on the sweet and summery side – I got blackcurrent in there, maybe some cherry and raspberry too.

Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy Mixed Berry

August 19th, 2023

A bit disappointing really, it’s just a boring mixed berry drink. I don’t know why I’m surprised at being disappointed with it seeing as it does clearly state “mixed berry” on the can. I think because it was on sale for £1 per can making this potentially a premium priced drink even at that reduced level I was expecting a bit more from it. It has higher than average caffeine content and a ton of informative nutritional information plastered across the can, but it just didn’t taste as unique as I’d hoped.

Protein Dynamix Mixed Berry

July 1st, 2023

It’s a nice looking can, matt silver with a nice simple design. But, it’s a quite bitter and strong flavoured drink that’s like a strong mixed berry squash.

It’s Time Energy Original

January 21st, 2023

I don’t care how many MMA stars are plastered on the can to intimidate me into liking this… I didn’t! This is a red berry flavoured drink, and has an extremely odd combination of being both very sweet whilst also dry and tart at the same time. A few sips of this had me wanting to scare my tongue clean, I’ve no idea how they managed that. Perhaps it’s the wolfberry extract, I’m not sure. This drink includes the now obligatory sugar-free-ness (which is a bonus in my opinion), BCAAs, B vitamins, and caffeine from green coffee beans. It’s also really caffeine-potent at 61mg/100ml in the 330ml can so keep that in mind! I only paid 20p for the can, so that should also be taken into consideration here I guess! Still, full marks for originality.

Sparkling Ice + Caffeine: Mixed Berry

August 20th, 2022

Normally when I see a flavoured water style energy drink I expect quite a watered down experience with not much flavour. Maybe it was because it was the hottest day so far of 2022 when I tried this, but I found it to be a perfect balance of flavour, sweetness and refreshingness (is that a word??).

Carabao Mixed Berry

A bit boring really, it was just a normal berry flavoured drink. Quite a strong flavour, a bit sickly, but nothing special at all.

Grenade Energy Berried Alive

June 4th, 2022

This drink has quite a strong flavour to it, like a strongly mixed summer fruits squash drink. There’s a very slight bitterness to it if you pay close attention to your tastebuds, like there might be pomegranate juice in there too, but mostly it’s a mixture of blackcurrant and other sweet berries (I’d like to say raspberry too, but I’m just guessing as there’s no specific clue on the can or stand-out taste). Watch out for the caffeine content, it’s very high!

Warrior – Berry Burst

April 23rd, 2022

Sadly this is just a bog-standard cheap tasting berry drink much like a lot of the supermarket own-brand ones. If you’re going to go with Warrior, choose the Original or Citrus flavours, those are by far the most original and tasty variants.

USN Power Punch Berry

August 21st, 2021

A bit of a disappointment really. It was a very generic ‘berry’ flavour, but I’d say it was predominantly blackcurrant. Low in calories but due to the large can size you got quite a caffeine hit. Quite sickly to drink the final third of the can though!
