Fist

August 15th, 2015

There’s not a lot I can say about this really, it’s a clone, it’s a large can, it’s sweet, it’s middle-of-the-road and nothing special other than the FIST on the front of the can. Full marks for an interesting brand name and can design.

Spartan

August 1st, 2015

For Honour. For Glory. For Victory. But not, as it seems, for Sparta. It tastes okay, in fact it tastes an awful lot like No Fear energy. As a consequence, I’m considering it a clone, but not quite a clone of Red Bull. It’s a large can and very sweet, but for the 39p this cost me it’s not bad at all.

LSV Zero Calories

July 25th, 2015

Pretty boring and unimaginative. It doesn’t even have zero calories. To me, when something says “Zero calories” on it, call me fussy but I’d expect the calorie content to be zero. In this case it actually contains about 10 calories per can which is still the equivalent of 5 Tic-Tacs. It tastes like a generic sugar-free energy drink too.

It’s a very sweet and nice clone. Doesn’t pack much of a punch in the wake-up department but it is an acceptably average drink!

Missile

April 18th, 2015

So this drink, erm, looks like a.. er, missile. Definitely a missile. Not a, erm, well, it doesn’t have anywhere to put batteries anyway. As a can, it attracts your attention, and as a drink it’s quite nice. It’s nothing original, but it does taste quite similar to Monster Energy instead of being one of the usual Red Bull clones.

Singh is King

February 21st, 2015

Interesting branding, but ultimately overlaid on a generic low quality clone. Very sweet and sticky, not particularly refreshing and definitely not unique. On the plus side, it doesn’t taste that bad really, I had just hoped for more originality given that it claims to be influenced by people from around India.

Revive & Survive Sugar Free

January 10th, 2015

A nice budget sugar free energy drink. Absolutely nothing special about it, but it was cheap, tasted okay, and does the job of satisfying those energy cravings. Not as sweet as the full fat version, but just right overall.

Power Horn

September 20th, 2014

Again, it’s all in the name. I’m assuming that this is a special edition for Valentine’s day or something, but under the covers it is just a pretty bland clone. Slightly watery with a sticky aftertaste, but on the positive side it cost 99p for 6 cans.

Very budget. It’s basically Spar’s continental version of their own brand energy drink. Nothing more to tell really I’m afraid!
