Bits Energy Drink Roundup

http://www.bit-tech.net/bits/2009/03/13/energy-drink-roundup/1

Need to keep perky during a lengthy gaming seesion? We put ten carbonated, caffeinated energy drinks to the taste test to see which is the best for keeping by your keyboard. Warning: some energy drinks taste like toilets (we're not joking) so read on before ordering a case for your next LAN.

 

I would love to see a video of this. Watching peoples faces as they taste. Much of that stuff sounds downright awful.

Thinking about it, I have never tasted a good energy drink. They all taste like chemical waste.



Oh, and you forgot to link to this thread in the article.

 

Cant believe you didn't have that cheap 'euro start?' energy drink or whatever it's called....the one that sells in newsagents and corners shops for 30p a can! -it's actually quite nice and cheap cheap cheap

 

I dunno where you got your ***** prices from, but £2.25 is wrong.

Case of 24 cans of ***** Natural Energy Drink £36.00 (£1.50 a can)
Sample pack containing 2 cans of ***** Natural Energy Drink £5.99 (£3 a can)

 

Recommend us some more and we'll do another one!!

Body Abuse +2

 

all the super markets do their own brand energy drinks now too - like the cheesecake test it's always good to pit the big supermarkets againts one another (btw morrions cheesecake IS the best!)

Profit!

 

If you do, do another round up of drinks your should definitely do rock star and monster.

 

Just a waste of money!

 

I swear I'm the only person that is not affected by caffeine D: Energy drinks just don't work on me. I could drink litres of it and get no buzz, and still fall asleep come 10/11pm.

 

Whats wroung with stong coffee and a Double Decker?

 

Your offices don't seem anywhere near as nice as the old ones.

 

It's the average price of the two?

 

let me get this right, you voluntarily gave this man


More caffeine???? you must be crazy.
Was this supposed to be a pod cast type thing but the sound lost? just surprised at all the microphones.
I honestly think that in the UK Redbull is unassailable, so many drinks companies have tried to take their market share and just been left shattered on the roadside, and too many try to use sexually provocative names. Recently a brewing company tried pushing an energy drink from Europe called "orgasm" in the UK flopped unsurprisingly due to not many people wanting to put orgasm juice in their mouths.

 

I picked up some ***** from KustomPCs.. think it was about £1.90 for an individual can.

 

Yea it will be a CustomPC podcast, but bit-tech doesn't have the facility to host it yet. I dont know when the 'cast will go live.

 

This article also appeared in CustomPC magazine this month. Probably due to the recent merger with the publishing company?

Most of these drinks (I'm sure) are not even available to buy in the UK (not in shops at least)

 

They were available at AquaPCs until they closed last week

 

You reviewed the wrong Bawls, Bawls in a can seems to water down the taste, Bawls in the glass bottles are amazing.
