Throwdown Energy Drink

Product Type:Functional: Energy Drink: Regular; Container: 16 fl oz can
BevNET Review: The Sugar Free version of Throwdown Classic delivers a flavor that's on par with its full calorie counterpart, which is always a plus for a sugar free drink. Using the popular blend of sucralose and ace-k, the drink delivers a natural sweetness without much in the way of aftertaste. Packaging is clearly labeled accordingly, with a silver logo taking the place of the red one on the classic variety. Overall, a decent entry into the sugar free category, but there's not much here in the way of innovation. Likely, this will appeal to drinkers based on price and the aggressive looking brand.Reviewed on: 10/17/2007

BevNET Review: Classic Energy delivers exactly what we'd expect -- that "classic" energy drink flavor pioneered by the likes of Red Bull. Throwdown's effort is on par with the other entries of this type. That being said, it's going to come down to marketing and branding. The approach that Throwdown is taking is one that features aggressive and urban looking design. The execution is good, with the front panel presenting clean graphics and minimal text.

BevNET Review: Throwdown's Rampage variety is a sweet fruit punch flavored energy drink. It's an enjoyable flavor, especially if you like energy drinks that drink like a CSD. There's a mild amount of energy bite to the finish and a noticeable kick. Packaging features an aggressive looking male-oriented themed design. It's a well executed design that has minimal text on the front of the can with the eye immediately spotting the "energy drink" text. Our only suggestion would be to give something that explains the flavor of "rampage" -- because otherwise you are left guessing what's inside the can. Overall, a good tasting product with decent branding.Reviewed on: 10/17/2007
