Diesel Energy Drink

Product Type:Functional: Energy Drink: Regular; Container: 16 fl oz (473 ml) can
BevNET Review: Like the full carb version, Diesel Low Carb has an urban industrial style can that packs a category standard formulation. In our opinion, this product really boils down to whether or not consumers like the Diesel name over similar products and whether or not it offers the right value to the consumer. A decent product, but it's going to take some hard work by United Brands to make this product fly off the shelves as it doesn't offer anything original.Reviewed on: 7/5/2006

BevNET Review: In many ways, Diesel is on par with Full Throttle, Monster, the handful of other energy drink products that have tried to create an energy drink that has edge but isn't offensive. In this case, it's Diesel, a word that certainly connotes energy but doesn't really make much of a statement otherwise, leaving the consumer to interpret what type of functionality this product might have compared to competing products. The urban industrial design is well composed and has pop, but we could live with out the horsepower and cylinder text as it undermines the seriousness of the brand. The flavor is sweet and potent, with a body that is based on the standard energy drink flavor used by many of the major products. The only downside is the aftertaste, which seems to linger for quite a while. Overall, Diesel is a decent product that doesn't really offer anything new, but it certainly makes for a viable alternative to other potentially higher priced competitors.Reviewed on: 7/5/2006
