Supplied in a generous 440ml can (I paid $3 for a can, which is about the same price as a 250ml can of Red Bull or a 350ml bottle of V), this energy drink looks like it should be being sold at Hell Pizza, and is manufactured by Energy Products Ltd in Takapuna, Auckland. Their website has soft porn and a naked man hanging upside-down by his penis. This makes it 100% awesome.

It contains, according to the can, 141mg of caffeine (which would be about right given the same proportions as the usual 250ml can energy drinks). Disclaimer says "Not recommended for children, pussys, lactating women, or individuals sensitive to caffeine." and there's various other text obviously designed to appeal to a demographic approximately half my terrestrial age. Or possibly Satanists.

The energy drink itself, disappointingly, is just another Red Bull clone. I was expecting a tinge of brimstone or the blood of virgins or something. Man, all that build up.

To sum up: generic, but has amusing packaging.
