OK, it's been quite a while since I've been on this site, and it seems like it was given an overhaul. When reading the Red Bull Diet review, I think it said that it was given a second review. Why??! Was the formula redone? Is Red Bull sponsoring BevNet, thus requiring a new write-up? Something else?

We don't do re-reviews for advertisers (Red Bull is not one anyway, for the record).

The text of the review might have changed, but the star rating did not. It's entirely possible that we originally tasted a pre-release version of the product and gave it a 2nd look once it hit the market.

Preferences, tastes and expectations change over time. I would think that sometimes a person might want to take a second look at something they tried years before. Also some things are an acquired taste.

OK, thank you. I wasn't aware you did pre-release reviews.
