Let’s Get Ready To Rumble Sugar Free
June 15th, 2024In a surprise twist the sugar free version of this drink tastes totally different to the full fat version! It’s still quite watery, but instead of the tangy caramel, it’s a more subtle fruity flavour. Sweet, but no dodgy aftertaste and very drinkable.

Let’s Get Ready To Rumble
June 8th, 2024Helping Michael Buffer (famed ring announcer) earn a bit more cash from his famous catchphrase, Let’s Get Ready To Rumble Energy is a licensed product which is sadly nothing more than a cloned energy drink underneath. The flavour is watery with notes of caramel. Perfectly nice to drink but it’s the same as many other promotionally branded drinks. In fact it’s made by RBM who also manufacture Furocity.
Reign: Mang-o-Matic
May 11th, 2024It’s the “health” brand of Monster back again with a new tropical-style drink flavoured with mango. Yeah, it’s a large can, tastes of mango, gives you a big hit of caffeine. Sadly nothing more special than that though – a premium prices tropical energy drink.

Kong Strong Colossus Sugar Free
April 20th, 2024Yup, the same as the non-sugar-free version really. Sweet, slightly tangy, and quite close to Monster in its flavour really.

Kong Strong Colossus
April 6th, 2024It’s been so long since I tried Lidl’s Kong Strong so I honestly can’t tell if this large can ‘Colossus’ drink is actually the same as the the smaller can, I think I’ll have to go and get one of those to compare. Anyway, this drink reminds me of the early days of energy drink clones… it’s sweet, slightly tangy, and quite different to Red Bull. I’d say it’s quite close to Monster Energy actually, very, very close in flavour!
Bang: Candy Apple Crisp
March 23rd, 2024I’m still not that keen on apple-flavoured drinks. I guess this one isn’t too bad, but it is quite sickly after a while. It’s basically fizzy apple squash, I’m not sure what the ‘candy’ part is, perhaps that’s just marketing. On the other hand, it’s pretty potent for caffeine so it’ll definitely wake you up!

Bang: Rainbow Unicorn
March 16th, 2024The fragrant taste of the world’s finest juiced unicorns combined with a spectral blast of rainbows. Maybe. Well, there’s no actual clue on the can as to what flavour this drink really is so I’m going to have to make a guess. I think that it’s strawberry, but with a twist of vanilla. Please contact me if you know differently!

Battery Remix
March 9th, 2024Quite often the combo of lime and strawberry in a drink can be slightly too sour, but Battery have got the mix just right. All this drink needs now is a glass full of crushed ice and a couple of shots of rum to make it the perfect strawberry daiquiri.

TØRST Festival Energi Utopia
March 2nd, 2024Discovered in a supermarket in Norway, I picked this one because I initially thought you perhaps pronounced the name TRST in the same way an Irish person might pronounce ‘thirst’. But, it looks like it’s just a stylised anomaly because the actual drink’s name is TØRST (you can see the Ø hidden behind the TRST on the logo). I’m not sure if this is a special edition flavour called Festival Energi Utopia, or if it’s just affiliated with a festival named ‘Utopia’ for promotional reasons, but it’s not really a special flavour. I’m putting this down as a clone as it tastes like a regular own-brand drink. If I had to describe the taste I would say that there are notes of aniseed with a slight tang of burnt caramel. It’s very nice, don’t get me wrong, but it doesn’t have a stand-out unique flavour.
