Energy Drink Energy energy drink is brought to life by Delhaize. While my guess is most people in the US have never heard of Delhaize, they are the folks behind Food Lion, Bottom Dollar Foods, Bloom and Harveys markets. I don\'t know for sure if Food Lion has an energy drink yet, but all of Europe does. Delhaize introduced the \"365\" brand name in Belgium, Greece, Romania and the Czech Republic, not to mention places all over their global domination network. This brand they rolled out is to help sell their \"customers basic, quality products at low prices all year round\". So nice of Delhaize to think of Energy Drink Energy energy drink as a basic year round kinda product.
A Big Thanks goes out to my Smuggler Mate - who managed to secret some out of Brussels for me to try for Y\'all.
Taste:9
One of the more surprising things about Energy Drink Energy energy drink is the drink that this Energy Drink tastes like. Usually, most private label energy dr
inks model their flavor off of the best selling energy drink out there, Red Bull Energy. But that is not the case for Energy Drink Energy energy drink.
And Energy Drink Energy tastes good - like fresh out of the green Monster Can good. This was sweet and vanilla and berry and all yummy. If this were my value store brand, I would never buy another Monster - that\'s for sure. I just wish this came in a larger can - like a 16 ouncer. The only issue I had with the flavor is it was gone all too quickly.
Packaging: 7
It took me a good long time staring a the package to get that this product\'s name is actually Energy Drink Energy. I just could not can not get over the simplicity of the name. Sure - now that I know this is a private label grocery store product it seems to make a little more sense, but this design is anything but generic.This design is way beyond what most store brands look like.
Their logo is done in a pleasing futuristic block fo
nt - being easy to read and also very unique. Every bit of !
wording
on the can is printed in eight separate languages. This is good for them because they only need to print out one can for all the different countries they sell in, but also because it gives this a nifty intercontinental look.
In terms of mechanics, they do list the caffeine content - which is very rare - along with all the other nutrients too. The lid is not on in any particular direction and there is no website or phone number to get more info about the drink - which is disappointing. Still, for a European drink, this one is far above many others in terms of style.
Buzz:5
This is where the store branding really comes in. I would not have hoped for anything different from them, especially because so many countries have different laws about how much caffeine is allowed in their drinks. Energy Drink Energy energy drink has played it safe on energy ingredients. THis has 80mg of caffeine , 1 gram of taurine, inositol, glucurolactone and the Vitamin B fa
mily.
The buzz is nothing to be impressed about. You will get as much buzz from this as any store brand in the universe - but in this case, that is perfectly fine. It just means if you are lucky enough to have this brand around you, you can drink three or four of these without any worry!
