CAFFEINE CONTENT
200 mg
EASE IN ACQUISITION—7
Exactly as common as your local dollar store.
APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6
Blue tribal pseudosunburst, aluminum background…not much more to it. It’s pretty dang bland.
TASTE—6.5
Power Sugar Free has the same grape-ish flavor as its sucrose-heavy counterpart, and as anticipated, it is significantly less syrupy as a result. It’s passable, if anything but remarkable, and I had a much easier time getting/keeping it down than the original.
KICK (INTENSITY)—8
Above average (enough to make me jittery, if not completely wired), but for 200 mg of caffeine, I’ve experienced better.
KICK (DURATION)—8
Got between 3½ and 4 hours out of this before the last little bit of efficacy faded away, which I found to be plenty satisfactory.
THE DRINK OVERALL—7.5
You know, when it comes right down to it, this is just cheap energy. There are plenty of drinks like that out there, so to me this is just another can in my collection. If cheap energy is all you’re looking for, then here’s another for ya, but then again, if that’s all you’re after you probably wouldn’t have taken the time to read the review. In any case, it’ll work, but as for myself, I’ll keep paying a bit extra for something that I can really enjoy/appreciate.
