Rodeo
August 30th, 2014Yee haaa, you gotta love these Continental European energy drink naming policies. It’s another budget clone, but why not call it Rodeo? The name, I guess as with most other drinks to be fair, means nothing. They haven’t bothered with a colour in the name either, just plain Rodeo. It’s the only thing different about this mediocre drink sadly.
Web
August 23rd, 2014I’m assuming they are jumping on the technology bandwagon and not the spider-based super powers one. It’s a clone to be sure, but quite a nice one. Discovered in a “Powerdino” supermarket in Tenerife, a supermarket worth visiting just for the name alone!
BVB09 Adrenalin
July 5th, 2014According to Wikipedia: “Ballspielverein Borussia 09 e.V. Dortmund, commonly known as Borussia Dortmund, Dortmund, or BVB, is a German sports club based in Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia.”. I don’t know much about sport at all, but I’ve had it confirmed by those in the know that the logo on the side of this can is pretty well known in footballing circles. The quality of the can itself is pretty good – a premium matt feel and good branding. The drink is a pleasant but unoriginal Red Bull clone, on the sweet side but perfectly drinkable.

Take Off
June 11th, 2014It’s a clone in a cool(ish) can. The car ignition stop/start button I guess is supposed to look more like a mission control launch button, but who cares – it’s a larger than normal can (330ml) containing a decent clone-style energy drink. Flavoured on the caramel side of things, but not too strong.

Effect Zero
May 28th, 2014Really not as nice as the full fat version. You’d usually expect there to be a similarity but in this case it’s pretty much a different flavour of energy drink. Much more bitter tasting and quite cheap tasting despite the premium price and ‘high quality’ blurb splashed over the front of the can.

Effect
May 24th, 2014Not too bad. It’s a clone so there’s no surprises there. It’s also on the herbal side regards to taste, but still very sweet. It bills itself as a high quality energy drink, but other than the slightly larger can, which does feel textured in a higher quality way, there’s nothing to indicate that this is a high quality drink from a taste point of view.
Power Booster
May 21st, 2014A very nice Red Bull clone from a supermarket in Amsterdam. I like the name, and the can design is much more appealing than many other own brand drinks, but other than that I don’t have much more to say about it. It is available in sugar-free, orange and shot forms so keep your eyes open for those reviews coming up.
Dynamite
May 17th, 2014Explosive? Ex-no-sive. Nice can design, poor attention to the quality of the drink. It’s a normal, boring clone with a slightly sour taste.
Evolve Sugar Free
May 10th, 2014I’m not sure if this is related to the other Evolve (full fat version) I tasted a while back, but it’s not how I remember it! This Evolve Sugar Free drink is a clone, but it’s very nice. Not metallic at all as I remember the other one being. I’d highly recommend you try it if you can find it.
