Energy Drink Review: Relentless
Filed in: Energy Drinks.

Surprise! Coca Cola has a new energy drink out on the market (apparently e2 didn't last?) called Relentless. It comes in a 440ml dark-brown can with the name written up the side in a fancy Germanic font. Some of the letters have three-pronged grappling hooks hanging off them, and there's a faint image of a head made of muscle on one side. I suspect that from the can size and colour scheme, it's aimed at competing with Demon Energy.
Relentless has a sort of sweet but tangy taste which is close to resembling most of the other energy drinks out there. Hey, CC, why don't you make an energy drink which tastes like Coke? You could call it "Coke Plus" or something.
Random thought: why is it petrol stations (or gas stations for the yanks) sell matches and cigarettes? Fire + petrol is bad.

Relentless is just Demon with less acidity. Petrol station can sell lighters and matches because there is no requirement to make fire when actually on the premises. One goes elsewhere to do that. It's like saying why do gun shops sell bullets, really. :)
