Shitty artificial sweetner + floral berry aroma that hits the nose when you drink it.

>>14670401
>Erythritol
>shitty
better than Aspartame in my opinion.

>>14670379
it's good, but it's no mango loco

>>14670407
I had Ultra Fiesta once and I liked the mango taste at first, but then I got tired of tasting it.

Powdered energy drinks are so much more economical

>>14670462
>Powdered energy drinks are so much more economical

agree, but it's not the same vibe as cracking open one of these on the highway

>>14670379
Blue is good. The taste kinda reminds me of a carbonated Kool-Aid.

>>14670484
Do you realize that you sound like a energy drink junkie?

>>14671149
Do you not realize that it's all part of the
/S I P B O I/ A E S T H E T I C

From all the Monsters that I have tried until now, if I had to choose one, the one that I have liked the most is Assault. The cola tasting one.

You know that ST:TNG episode where Data is tending bar, and the only description for a bottle he has is "It is green."?

Yeah. It is blue.

Try again, newfag.

I'm a huge sucker for Rockstar's newer sugar-free sips
>First Start
>XD Power

Sugar-free Coke energy is fucking great too

>>14671591
Since when is Ultra Blue NOT a /sip/?
Looks to me like you're the newfag, newfag

>>14671619
>Sugar-free

Maybe the sugar is less bad for you than the artificial sweeteners.

>>14671149
Shut up bitchboy and crack one open.

>>14671709
Sipping on an ultra sinrise right now
gets me through the morning grind

Call me when you are spitting out blood and pieces of your liver retard.

>>14671876
Did your Mormon parents tell you that?

>>14671876
Get a load of this dork

>>14671865
no it isn't
even if artificial sweeteners have some detrimental effect on humans (which is doubtful and even if true, wouldn't be true for all of them), it still can't compare to how bad drinking 10 cubes of refined sugar is for your organism
it also doesn't make you a fat fuck

I see Covid really does cause brain-damage

>>14670379
I started having seizures after I would have a monster at 5am (mango, the only good flavor) a second one at 10am
then have around 4 cups of coffee around lunch
then a bang at 6pm
The seizures have ruined my life and all energy drinks should be banned

Drink water, you fucking retard

>>14672148
Why would you take thousands of milligrams of caffeine

>>>/r9k/ is that way, friend

I've mainly been a fan of the Zero Sugar, but I've also started drinking a lot of the Dragon Tea, since it has a low content. My favourite is the yellow, kind of tastes like menthol; and its so smooth without the carbonation.

That said, for me it's the orange sip. Didn't think I'd like it, since I usually don't like orange juice, but it's got the best early morning pop. It's like drinking the sunrise!

This was the best energy drink, bar none, but no longer in existance.

>>14673052
because I NEEDED IT!!!

>>14672148
This is sarcasm, right?

Making fun of retards that blame energy drinks or caffeine because they don't know how to control the dose.

>>14672174
This. Water > shitty energy drink for sipping
I don't mind drinking the green one every two weeks or so

>>14672148
>I imbibed 7x the amount of caffeine that's safe to consume in a day, why do I feel sick?
Natural selection in action

>>14672174
This won't stop us from /sipping/.

>>14671876
These are new levels of retardation

>>14673568
only partial sarcasm

>>14670379
imo ultra blue is the worst of the Ultras. it is the only one where the artificial taste of the sweetener is unpleasantly noticeable. best is red, or original ultra zero.

I'm a Red Bull fag

>>14675401
Based. It's the cocaine of energy drinks. Red Bull low carb and sugar free offerings are also 100x superior to anything Monster and Rockstar offer.

>>14670379
What does the blue one taste like?

>>14675863
berry

>>14674860
Ohhh, so you really used to do that? At what age? Because you must be very young or very dumb to not know that too much sugar or caffeine is bad for your health.

>>14675401

>>14672148
>I take 10x times the maximum allowed dosage of a substence, therefore it should be banned
you're the one who should be banned

Fuck I've gotten addicted to these things. I started off drinking one of the Monster Mule's here and there (still hold that it's the only good tasting one), then started craving one a day. Realized I was getting a bit of a paunch from the sugar so I started drinking the sugar free ones. I tend to get a headache if I don't drink one unless I take a bunch of b-vitamin supplements along with coffee/tea. I am become the Boomer.

Have a case of Zero Ultra coming in today, and two cans of Ultra Sunrise in the fridge.

Black monster > any other monster.
All other energy drinks taste mostly the same, barely any difference between big brands and some local noname shit while price is at least 50% cheaper.

>>14676759
How much are they in case form? Generally get whichever is on sale monster or rockstar.

>>14676810
Looking on amazon you're still paying over $2.50 a can. They're usually on sale in grocery stores for under $2

>>14676810
Kinda sucks since they went up on Amazon, they were going for something like $26 not too long ago, but they're still a decent deal now. 24 pack is just shy of $34, which comes out to $1.42 a can almost.

>>14671709
Technically a sip is Ultra Zero.

>>14676896
Technically a sip is any flavor from the line of Ultras. This dates back to 2017 when the /sip/ threads first started.
Some anons go so far as to say a sip is any kind of energy drink. This is debatable, but I don't really care
As a long time /SIPBOI/, I'd rather not waste my time debating arbitrary rules about what is and isn't a /sip/.
Just crack one open and get /sip/pin

Just tried this fellow out and was reasonably impressed. Seemed like a less sweat, slightly more citrusy version of mango loco, but at a much cheaper price point. And connect to the Dr.Pepper company, which is interesting to note. Also the snake theme is kind of fun, with each flavor having a snake tied to it.

Anyone used to sip these big Bois? I used to get them in highschool because they were only $1 haven't seen them in over a decade though

I for one, like these.

>>14677872
Never even seen or heard of this. What country are you from?

>>14677939
Canada but I haven't seen them since 09

Honestly guys, just drink black coffee.

>>14677904
Kona Blend was my GOAT. I can't find it near me anymore though.

First time I had one of these I thought I was dosed with adderall.

>>14678139
In my area loca moca and mean bean are the common flavors, salted caramel is uncommon, kona blend is sold in one store that I know of, but irish blend and vanilla light are nowhere to be seen.

yuropoor here.

just bought a ton of american-only monsters (mostly the java ones). which should i try first? irish blend? mean bean?

>>14678844
mean bean is basically vanilla iced coffee, it's pretty good. if you have Kona blend in there it's pretty godlike

>>14678861
i basically got every single one i could find. salted caramel, the 300 mg caffeine ones, swiss chocolate, all sortsa jazz. no idea what to expect from any of them except the obviously named ones.

I've heard Irish Blend is real sweet? Is that true? and is vanilla light good?

bow down peasa

you guys ready to /cybersip/?

>>14670379
Any one try these? What are they like?

canada has reign now
>it sucks
https://sipboi.blogspot.com/2020/08/reign-energy-razzle-berry.html

>>14679230
Not that anon, but yes, it's true. I honestly don't really like any of the Java Monsters, except for the Farmer's Oats one. They're all way to sweet and thick. Farmer's Oats, since it's made wioth oatmilk, is less thick and also has less sugar.
Never tried vanilla light so I can't say. Never even seen it in amy stores.

didn't like this /sip/ at all, 3/10

>>14679646
Same, anon. I was so disappointed with the green sip. They made up for it with Fiesta and Rosa though. Probably two of my favorite sips.

this stuffs pretty good

>>14671619
Have you tried this one? Knocks the rest out of the water.

>>14670379
I've drank so much energy drinks that they don't even do anything for me anymore. I had two ultra zero Monster drinks today and they only gave me 4 hours of energy.

Caffeine fucking sucks but its so had to quit

The Austrians solved the god-formulae

>passed a qt on the sidewalk yesterday who was carrying a green sip
>my favorite flavor
>didn't say hi

I'm never gonna make it, am I boys?

>>14683143
Just saying Hi to a person on the street you don't know is fucking weird man. If you want to catch her attention and start a convo, be smoooth like
>*points at sip* "Hey, that's my favorite one too!"
And then you can go on how you know about energy drinks and ruin that chance too.

>>14680474
This caught my eye in the gas station today and I remembered your post and bought it.

Holy shit is this the best tasting thing I have ever had. No aftertaste what so ever.

>>14680474
>>14683420
Now bring this stuff to europe and you'll get all the shill-bux

Looking forward to my evening sip.

Sip bros 2020. We still doing this shit.

>>14683487
Caffeine is addictive and the chemicals are not good for you.
I love my sips but moderate yourself. I stick to two cans a day max but I also work out and drink plenty of water.

Remember to stay healthy, /sip/

i regularly buy cases or 10 or 4pks depending on what brand

my frequent non-intensives sips are rockstar sugarfree and ultra sunrise

my 300mg bastards rotate between bang's rainbow unicorn / birthday cake bash / radical skedaddle, i used to drink reign more often but i think i'm bored with their flavors although their true blu one is out of this world since it tastes like original monster

usually i would also have the low carb red bull too but i haven't bought it recently for whatever reason, i really wish they had more sugar free varieties that came in an 8.4oz 4pk rather than just that basically, it's my "in place of a cup of coffee" sip whenever i just want a little drink of something noticeably caffeinated. i used to frequently buy purple red bull as a treat but i'm not too sad about how bang rainbow unicorn tastes a lot like it and you get more drink and caffeine for your buck anyway

related but unrelated i wish bang's keto coffee was tastier

this appeared in some stores a few months back (around toronto) has anyone else tried it? it reminds me a bit of a more fruity white monster but idk what to think

This is what I had this week /sip/bros. I love those Rainbow Unicorn Bangs

Truly the most based flavor

>>14670484
>it's not the same vibe as cracking open one of these on the highway
My man

How do you prefer to enjoy your sips? I like reading manga while having a nice cold Bang.

Just bought a Bang Blue Razz and
>>14680474 , what am I in for?

>>14670379
Original Bangcock Redbulls.

i bought an energy drink and it's a few years old. is it safe to drink?

>>14671501
Agree. That one and the Cherry Assault is fucking incredible.

WE IN HERE

>zero calories
>'energy' drink

how?

>>14686764
Niacin & B-Vitamins

I got my hands on a 12 pack of these, and I must say that these are fucking shit. Everyone was hyping them as if they're some hardcore foreign thai drink, but I'm pretty sure there's like 40mg of caffeine in these only, and they taste like cough syrup due to the amount of sugar.

I swear there's more energy in those korean ginseng shot drinks than these

Do you limit your daily caffeine intake or drink as much as you want?
I think 700 is my limit.
>>14686784
Do you mean Bacchus? It doesn't really have any effect on me.

>>14686805
they look like these

also these are decent mostly because they look fa
as fuck

>>14686813
I'd definitely drink one, then much on the root afterwards. Cant believe I haven't seen these before.

>>14679818
I love this flavor.

>>14686820
>miso-flavoured sip
Euggh... I'd try it.

>>14670379
I don't understand how people drink the no sugar energy drinks. They virtually all have that same disgusting flavor of some sugar replacement.

tfw no ultra blue in my city

is buying it on the internet to try it worth it?

based kikes offering the best energy drinks

How do you guys deal with caffeine tolerance? After a month or so of daily sip it just stops having any effect...

>>14683775
very pink

>>14679646
just got this sip. thought it was a nice change of pace from my favorite sip, though I wouldn't buy it regularly. 5/10

>>14687423
that's exactly what people who drink no sugar stuff think about sugary drinks.

Happy Labor Day weekend, /sip/boys

Are there any energy drinks like venom but with less artificial stuff?

>>14690942
What similarities to Venom are you looking for? Flavors? Price?

>>14690946
Both

>>14690947
Rockstars tend to be on the cheaper side, with a good variety of flavors.
Other than that, the cheapest that comes to mind are the energy drinks at Aldi. For $.99 they can't really be beat, but the selection of flavors is extremely limited; just an imitation Red Bull called Red Thunder, an imitation classic Monster, a sugar-free classic Monster, and an imitation of Monster Ultra Zero. The Ultra Whites taste identical to Monsters if you're into that.

>>14670379
The new Rose variety is awesome, tied with white can. I don't care for the Ultra Blue.

>>14689902
except sugar drinks don't have the distinct flavor of sugar, idiot

>>14691070
agreed. rose is my new fav

I like these things, but they taste really strong and the top is retarded and hard to drink from

>>14691191
Based retard

Hey sipbros, I've not really been much for energy drinks but I've recently developed a taste for Monster Energy The Doctor. What's the general opinion on it?

>>14692299
>Monster Energy The Doctor
Not a sip, but it's OK in my humble opinion. Tactile packaging, unique taste... what lets it down? It's not sugar free.

For me, it's the Mountain Dew Kickstart, Energizing Orange Citrus flavor.

>>14679609
Not my favorite, but it's pretty inexpensive compared to most brands, especially the max caffeine ones like Bang.

>>14686764

flavor is coo

That grape no sugar one was pretty good.

>>14694097
pretty funny, but black coffee is an "energy drink" and it isnt confusing that it has 0 calories..

Damn, XDurance hits a lil diff huh

>>14698747
I still have one can that I was saving. It's gotta be about 3-4 years old at this point. Dunno if I should even open it if just keep it as a collectable.
