No Limit
October 24th, 2015No, no, no-no, no, no, no-no, no, no, no-no, THERE’S NO LIMIT… etc. Nice, fruity, fizzy, and in a can aimed at a market that only the manufacturer could identify. I guess it’s for the adrenaline loving pink-fluffy dressing female and male market? Yeah, I’m not too sure, but I liked the drink anyhow.

POSI+IV – Peach and Lime
October 17th, 2015Peach and Lime should never be combined. Ever. It just doesn’t work, and what you end up with is some sort of drink that doesn’t know if it’s supposed to be sharp, sour, sweet, or bitter. It’s the taste equivalent of mixing all of your paints together to get brown.

Spartan Original Zero
October 10th, 2015Pretty much the same as the full fat edition, it tastes like No Fear, which is not a bad thing at all. A nice large can of a nice low calorie drink.

Epic Energy
October 3rd, 2015It took me ages to open this can, and I had to use a screwdriver in the end. The re-sealable opening on the can is way too difficult to open, at least it was on the can that I purchased anyway. The branding on the can is premium quality, with a matt effect label, and the drink itself is okay (a clone) but nothing special. Very sweet, but let down by the daft and fiddly opening.

Black Vitamin Energy Blueberry
September 26th, 2015There’s no official value on the can for caffeine content, hence I’ve guessed it at being as low as possible. This is branded as being a health drink, containing natural pick-me-ups such as guarana, magnesium, vitamin B6 and others. It tastes okay too so far as health-branded drinks go, but that’ll probably be because of all the sugar (not so healthy after all!).
Gangster
September 5th, 2015Interesting branding… it’s clearly a cheap clone, and it tastes watery but very sweet by comparison to others, but the brushed silver can with black detailing does give it a premium look. I have to say though that the name ‘Gangster’ is unlikely to ever become a mainstream brand!

Tropicana Energy – Mango and Guava
August 29th, 2015It’s just a shot of caffeinated fruit juice. I don’t much like fruit juice, so I found this horrific, but if you are after a caffeine perk without the usual energy drink flavour then this is for you. I’d be surprised if you could tell the difference between this drink and a regular juice drink.
Red Bull – The Tropical Edition (2015)
August 22nd, 2015Red Bull have managed to tame the tropical flavour in their own special way. It’s just right! Sweet, but not overly, and definitely no nasty aftertaste. If you must go for a tropical energy drink, then you can’t go wrong with this one.

Fist
August 15th, 2015There’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.
