Hey Guys, Ya Like Energy Drinks?
 

Well prepare to ****ing LOVE energy drinks. I was about to buy a can of NOS Grape energy drink today because like all of you I was thinking like a total ****ing idiot.

Isle 1, on the left, middle shelf in Safeway. As I reached for the can, a can containing a different energy drink threw itself off of the shelf right into my mouth and I swallowed it whole. I had to make myself throw up right there in the isle and when I picked up the can I took a good look at it and this is what I saw:

Beaver Buzz? What the hell is this ****!?
So I took a sip and let me tell you, not only did this make my taste buds happy, but it tasted great.

Ya see that Beaver? DO YOU SEE IT!? It's ready to kick some ass. At anything! And that's how you'd feel if you drank one of these badass mother ****ers.

Ya wanna go drink a Redbull now?

How about I kick you in the balls.

You take a good look at that beaver. He's pissed, and he's wanting to jump into your stomach right about now and turn you into the most hyped up bitch you can be. Will you accept him??

For every 8.3 oz of liquid in this ****er you have about 110 mg of caffeine.
For monster, ever 16 oz, you get a measly 160. Are you ****ting me!? Double the amount but only add 50 mg!?

In Canada we do **** right. That's why Harper is in power. And you can be in power too if you drink this ****.

I've already had like 4.

Aww, that hurt.

I'm tempted to say something about how dangerous and despicable caffeine is, but for the sake of humour I'll just smile and nod.

I've never seen this before in my life, but if I do in the future, I'll be sure to try it. I like new culinary experiences, however ghetto they may be :P

Damn man I think that's nasty stuff. :P
Glad you like it though, you seem to be an energy drink connoisseur.

No, I don't like energy drinks, because I prefer having functional kidneys.

^ :xD: Great response.

Nah, redbull sucks :P

Pfft, who needs those these days?

Nos grape ftw

Looks nice but, Here in America... http://i701.photobucket.com/albums/w.../Four_Loko.jpg
Alcoholic Energy drink

I thought Four Loko had been banned...?

Crazy stuff man :stare:

No sir ;) I would know

Huh! :S Well, obviously I haven't had much Four Loko in my time. Or many other energy drinks, for that matter. Beaver Buzz, Brawndo, Powerthirst...

Well, maybe I'll keep an eye out for it.

I can tell :P

I think right now it's strictly in Canada.

****. This **** buzzes my beaver, hard.

Chase that **** with a couple 5 hour energy's.

With Beaver Buzz, you need nothing else.

You could be a Beaver Buzz Spokesman. ;)

There is no way THAT could be taken out of context.

Personally I detest energy drinks mainly because the only time I feel the effects is when I am trying to go to sleep. I just sort of sit there unable to sleep....for days.

Was anyone else expecting this post to turn into a "I don't always have energy drinks, but when I do..." meme? :P

Never heard of that meme.

That's like saying you never go on the internet, bro.

In my experience:
-Monster's "Rehab", Blue, Orange, and Purple taste like s*** and give absolutely no buzz.
-Monster Red and Import are delicious, give no buzz.
-Bawls and Monster Green are ok, give no buzz.
-5 Hour Energy gives you "a swift kick in the pants" and then it's gone, it also tastes like s*** but if you can get about 5 it'll keep you awake.
-Coffee tastes good if brewed right and gives a decent amount of energy
-Espresso is amazing but one serving won't give you any energy, 8oz is another story. Expensive.
-Jolt Cola/Cherry sounds good, haven't personally had them but someone told me the Cherry tastes good.
-Red Bull tastes like piss combined with Mountain Dew, which already tastes like piss and a grapefruit. Gives no energy.
-Mountain Dew tastes like s*** but if you can drink like 6 cans you'll be awake for a few more hours
-Mountain Dew Code Red tastes great, provides as little energy as Mountain Dew.
-Foosh Mints are mints, taste like mints, which means you will eat half a tin before you realized you just consumed half the lethal dose of caffeine. Not reommended because of this.

My kidneys probably hate me.

In my experience:
-**** your energy drinks
-Drink Beaver Buzz

Energy drinks suck IMO, and it's just MY opinion so don't jump on me LOL. It's like cheating on a test. You didn't study prior so you look at your partner's paper and copy his results to pass. With energy drinks, you didn't take care of your body, exercise, or eat right, so your body can't produce natural energy and you cheat by drinking energy drinks. I have never tried one and never will.

Implying that I don't take care of my body, exercise or eat right.

Frick you and your assumptions.

Well I'm assuming you drink the drinks for energy boost and if your body was properly taken care of then this energy boost would come naturally. I'm into fitness and eating organic so I know a thing or two what our bodies need or do not need and why they need it. I also work the 3rd shift, the "coffee shift", without the aid of any of that ****.

But hey if you drink it for fun or tastes, then I apology for my wrong assumptions.

Wait....mints?!?

Only time I drink them for a boost is when i teach drums.

My experience

Monster (normal): Very nice, good energy
Monster (juice): Nice, average-good energy
Monster (low carb) OK, average energy

Jolt (normal): Nice, good energy

Red Bull: Nasty, low-average energy

Mountain Dew (only had a couple of times): OK, low-average energy

Coffee: Good tasting, low to average energy when brewed properly (instant isn't so good)
Espresso: nice to very nice, but low energy due to being small

Coke: Nice, very small energy - really not worth it if you're after caffeine.

Jagermeister: Very nice (but very strong tasting), average energy, alcoholic. Technically doesn't contain any energy-giving substances, but always seems to make me feel like I have a lot.

I've got to try some of those mints :P
On my list to try: Bawls, Mana Energy Potion

Seriously, stay away from Foosh mints. Or at least keep the tin away from reaching distance so you don't absent-mindedly consume like 2g of caffeine.

I sat down, launched TF2, had a mint because I was kinda tired from school. Three hours later, "Huh? Where'd... Oh, s***." I stayed up 72 hours straight in the middle of the week, followed by a 3pm-6am crash. Never again.\

Hmm, found some beaver buzz online, probably will order some online later, I'm quite poor atm. :P

Sight Unseen, that just makes me want some more. I'll take the advice about keeping them out of reach though :D

I didn't want to start a new energy drink forum just to ask, but has anyone here every had a 5-hour energy, and are they that bad for you, cause I was thinking about drinking one before work cause I get up at 5:30 and do manual labor and get tired by 1, when I get off, but then when I get home I have to run. Coffee doesn't cut it, and I sleep like 6.5 hours at night and 2 hours during the day, which should be enough, but I was just wondering about 5-hour energy

Tastes pretty bad, but ya know what? It's not too bad caffeine wise and it gives you a good jolt at first and then you feel pretty awake throughout the day (But I find you need to be focused on doing something or else you'll get tired easily).

If you eat with an energy drink, it can help reduce the loss of energy when you come down at the end.

I love energy drinks. ^ ^
Prefer RedBull. :awesome:
That is actually just next to me. :D

do you people prefer the sugar free version of the various energy drinks or with sugar? i've been drinking the sugar free V and it tastes better than the normal ones. same with redbull, the sugar free ones are better.

Hm... I did not know that there are sugar free.
And they taste better? :)


Which I must try. :D

With sugar. Sweeteners just don't taste right.

I'm with HnM.
If you're going to destroy your body with caffeine and chemicals might as well throw some sugar in there.

And sugar-free tastes like ass.
