Imagine being a grown ass adult man and you don't even have 3 dollars kek

It comes in pints?

>>17727727

Its a lifestyle brand at this point. They market it to people who embrace the "lifestyle" instead of any value proposition

>>17727686
>>17727736
Redbull coasts purely on being 'first' these days. It's cans are smaller, more expensive, and contain less vitamins and caffeine than other brands. It also has that medicinal aftertaste - though that might be part of the charm for some people. That and people use it for a drink mixer with vodka and other stuff.

What *I* can't figure out the popularity of is full throttle. I tried one recently after a sippy thread mentioned how popular they are with truckers and rednecks and it... tasted like nothing, had less caffiene than most other 16oz, and it's at the more expensive end per can generally.

>>17727748
I personally think red bull has the best taste among other energy drinks. Tried almost every monster and while I see the appeal, I'm not a fan of its weird candy flavor.

>>17727748
Redbull tastes the best and doesn't make me want to puke due to hyperglycemia like other brands.

>>17727799
>what is monster zero

> energy drink
If you need a sugar drink to get "energy" you might consider to not reproduce. If you like the taste... - well, you do you.

>>17727686
This mogs redbull

>>17727837
>every line of text has a star next to it
hahahahahaha

>>17727813
>you might consider to not reproduce
Come and stop me. That's right, you can't.

All bark, no bite.

>>17727849
Why would I stop you? Or even bite?
I might suck your dick though.
Without a fight.

BROKE NIGGAS I CAN NEVA FUCK WIT EM

>Anon how could we pay Verstappen's salary otherwise? please think of poor us
>>17727748
Red Bull tastes pretty good famalaman, and the variant flavours are great too, it's just as shame it's so overpriced

>>17727874
>t. dilate seething tranny
Have sex, incel.

>>17727686
Who drinks this stuff? No one actually drinks energy drinks, there just a meme.

>>17727912
people who work

>>17727791
Agreed. It’s the best tasting energy drink bar none.

>>17727914
I know a lot of people who work a lot that subsist on this shit, but I also know a lot of people who work a lot that have never ever touched it

>>17727927
Damn you know a lot of people it sounds like. At least 2 wow

>>17727748
Red bull had an amazing advertising department.
That's all there is to it.

Monster doesn't, that's why only sweaty teens and boomers drink it.

>>17727886
>mid 2000's
>doing a a job at the red bull warehouse in my town
>job takes all day
>earlier in the day I helped myself to a carton of red bull when no one was around
>drink 12 warm red bull cans
>start getting the sweats and bad nausea
>end of the day the red bull promo girls in the red bull volkswagens start to arrive back after being out all day
>'hey boys want a red bull?'

>drink 8 ounces of red bull or 12-16-20 ounces of something else
red bull is better

>>17727942
>warm
this is the worst part

>>17727912
ldont call me a nobody

>>17727912
>drink red bull quickly on way to work in car
>or smell like a 90 year old cat lady drinking coffee at work
the choice is simple

>>17727930

It's very amusing to me to see people drinking Monster and Rockstar and whatever the fuck, utterly unaware that the ONE AND ONLY socially acceptable energy drink is a regular sized can of Red Bull. Anything else and you're advertising how socially unaware and out of tune you are.

You may not like it, but that's an absolute fact. Pussies dry the fuck up when you grip a Monster.

>>17728227
The presence of salt tends to make you dry

>>17728227
>I can't think for myself I need to do what's socially acceptable
Bet you're also triple boostered and wear a mask in your car

>>17727748
Yeah what are *chugs 24oz monster* are they doing with *boofs two 16oz monsters* thinking having a normal amount *sucks five dicks* of caffeine?

>>17727803
Aspartame tastes like shit

>>17727727
>>17727734
Yeah except by pint they mean 568mL.

For me it's supporting the Red Bull Formula 1 team despite never buying or even tasting one of their drinks

>>17727686
Red Bull is the best tasting energy drink, but it is expensive for what it is. Honestly, just take caffeine pills, you can get 300 for $ 8 on Amazon, split in half and get 600 (same caffeeine as Red Bull) and drink with water.

>>17727837
Celsius tastes awful.

If you can get your hands on some Nocco it absolutely shits all over Celsius.

>>17728261
never seen pints of red bull. the largest can they sell here (bongland) is 473ml, which is 16oz iirc

>>17727791
>>17728307
The best tasting energy drink I've ever had that isn't one of these new function drinks or some overly sweetened thing is pic related. It's like Red Bull except even better.

But they don't sell it internationally anymore. You can only get it from Australia or New Zealand these days.

>>17728236
The game is what it is. The rules are what they are. You want it to be another way, but it isn't.

1.50 euro for 1.50 L
maybe gfuel is cheaper, ive never tried any tho

>>17728377
you know it's good when the brand is just "energy drink"

>>17728382
this is the store's own brand, they sell other brands but most of it is generic

>>17728352
The only winning move is not to play

>>17728377
They don't sell these anymore

Probably got plenty of lawsuits because of it, it was common to see kids in the streets drinking one of these in an afternoon

>>17728482
they dont sell them anymore where you live? i got two of these in my fridge

>>17728497
yup

>>17728476
No, that's how you live an unfulfilled life before dying alone. The winning move is play the game and cheat as much as you can within the set parameters.

>>17728831
You're just an automaton at that point. What's the fulfillment in never doing what you want but what the rest want from you? This is the kind of attitude that ends up enabling oppression.

>>17727686
Do you have any idea how much the price for aluminium rose last year?

>red bull was always way overpriced piss, pay up suckers hahaha

>>17727686
More like retards paying that, are the ones who's lost their minds.
But I'm not to judge what people spend their money on.

>>17727748
>and contain less vitamins
Because when I'm drinking an energy drink I find myself deeply concerned about how it's affecting my vitamin intake

>>17727927
What’s the age breakdown on that split though? I have a feeling younger people go for RedBull.

>>17729448
the sugar-free (faggot) one maybe, it seems most people under 25 can't distinguish between sugar and ricin

>>17728864
Like I said, you want things to be one way, but they're the other way. It doesn't matter what you want, what matters is how well you can play the game. If you play the game well enough you might get to do some things you want, but to go through life based solely on what you want is living like a dog.

>>17728377
bro this shit looks like those LA's best cleaning detergent, specifically pine scented

>>17729125
are you retarded? genuine question

i get 12oz ones at walmart for 2.50 based american freedom

>>17727686
>>17728227
Reminder

Can we all agree 355ml is the perfect can size for energy drinks? if you need more you're either a fat fuck or an ADHD ridden faggot

>>17727914
Just get canned coffee bro.

>>17729887
Canned coffee is fucking delicious.
Even better when it's winter and you can get it hot from the vending machine, warms you right up.

I hate I like the taste of red bull and few drinks compare, outside of costing even more and having to order them, because once they became a popular mixer they shot up in price

>>17729876
in english, shithead

>>17729924
Strongest monster fan vs weakest red BVLL fan

>>17729876
>>17729942
Needs to be updated with that huge dicked trap that used a monster can as reference

What does it taste like, I've never tried it. Im imagineing sweet but what flavor is it.

>>17728341
they sell a 16oz (1 us pint) can along with the 250ml can in the us

>>17729945
I don't get that pic because a monster can isn't even that long

gfuel is the only energy drink I like, because I can mix it in a huge shaker with ice

otherwise I'd rather have coffee

>>17729876

Red Bull and Monster put me to sleep so hard
Rockstar and Venom work better for me

>>17730233
derp I forgot that the US uses a different measure of a pint.

>>17727886
>>Anon how could we pay Verstappen's salary otherwise? please think of poor us
Kek, the spare engines ain't gonna pay for themselves either

my old neighbor essentially founded redbull. AMA

>>17731542
your old neighbor is malaysian?

>>17727686
Definitely overpriced for the effects since other brands do a better job of waking me up but Red Bull tends to have the best taste so I still go with it over the other brands

>>17727748
Tastes better than monster that's for sure, the only energy drink that doesn't have sucralose in addition to sugar in the full sugar version. Plus I get anxious if I have too much caffeine. I like it.

I recently took the caffeinated sparkling water pill, shits cash.

>>17727686
>durr why chemical expensive
Retard

>>17732088
Gayest fucking shit i've ever seen

>>17732159
Yea but it’s dirt cheap, you can absolutely slam them, they’re healthy and have the same amount of caffeine as coffee and energy drinks.

>>17728246
Monster Zero is sweetened with erythritol

>>17732199
>they're healthy

>>17732306
yes?

>>17732205
>Monster Zero is sweetened with semen
Ftfy

if you niggers unironically drink this shit you are as retarded as a nigger

>>17727686
It's a Thai drink. What do you expect from a country filled with trannies and cheap filthy whores

>>17728227
Sad but true. The only socially acceptable energy drink is redbull

For me, it's Red Bull Sugar Free 250 ml.

>>17733254
based and sugarfreepilled

so basically it's a status symbol for normies at da club?
what do you mix it with?
does it actually taste good mixed

>>17733378
no
vodka
yes

>>17730237
it is for a tranny dick to be 6 inches semi

>>17732105
chemicals are cheap as shit then diluted/suspended in powder like 90-99% in the drink. You pay more for the packaging than anything.

>>17727707
Red Bull isn't a particularly good energy drink since nowadays you can get energy drinks that are better tasting and cheaper. I suppose some people enjoy the specific flavour of Red Bull, but a lot of people like energy drinks that don't have the "energy drink" taste.

>>17727748
Based.

>>17728246
>>17732205
>>17732434
Its sweetened with acesulfame K + sucralose. Get your facts straight if you want to talk about something.

>>17728344
They sell it in the UK and probably few other countries, but since few years ago they halfed the sugar content in international version (called ultimate ir smth) and now it tastes like shit

Redbull tastes the best, the monster drinks are just too rich in flavour and most don't even have sugar in them, why are they even calles energy drinks if they have no sugar?

>>17733378
How poor could you possibly be that a 3 dollar energy drink could be considered a status symbol?

>>17735402
it's a tiny can and it tastes bad
why else would you drink it

>>17734571
>why are they even calles energy drinks if they have no sugar?
Because they have caffeine?? retard

>>17736804
but caffeine doesn't give you energy

>>17727748
Red bull is the only energy drink i can stomach, the rest taste like battery acid and floor cleaners

Goat coming thru

>>17738082
nah

>>17738082
mmmmm.... yellow

>>17729906
Get the cheaper original Thai drinks at Asian grocery stores. Like the green Buffalo skull Cao Bao guan yu crap.

>>17738082
>>17738092
Prepare to get mogged

>>17727686
This is the ultimate evolution of sips. All other sips bow down to your Peachy King

>>17740627
FUCK

>>17732159
theres less gay ones
they aint bad

>>17738082
>>17738092
>>17739908
Sorry wrong pic

>>17727837
For the buzz or taste? The taste is awful, but it does have 200mg of caffeine

>>17728344
Yeah? This is the best I've ever had. Blew me out of the water. Also during the summer AMP makes a really good watermelon one. Leagues better than the monster watermelon.

>>17729836
Non of the energy ingredients are "vitamins"

Man, I must be weird. I just don't like energy drinks. I've tried many. I'll take a black coffee.

If your drinking it regular it is quite pricey, but I buy a couple cans like once a month just because I like the taste.

>>17742549
It's just an acquired taste, it grows on you.
