Some people ask why other energy drink brands don’t enlarge the can for twice the boost, like Hype Energy X2. I think the very simple answer is: nobody will ever be able to drink so much of any other energy drink than Hype. They all taste the same, have a horrible aftertaste that will last until Christmas and/or are not able to fulfill me with a boost required during/after a day hard working.
Next to that, you don’t only buy an energy drink, you buy an image. Hype is cool, trendy, know how and where to party (slightly referring to the WinterMusicConference in Miami which was massive!), have a website that kicks ass where you can order your drinks to be delivered at home!
If you like Red-Bull...You'll like this, pretty simple. Tastes almost exactly the same...with a slight variation. Personally I think it's funny that this site gives Red-Bull such a low grade but this higher...when its essentially the same drink...Skip this one...Move for something more innovative.
I've tried what seems to be every energy drink under the sun...this is the worst thing I've ever tasted. I couldn't even take a full sip. I'm wondering, based on other user-reviews, if the company is having trouble with quality control and consistency. The B12 smell and taste made this thing smell/taste like a crushed B12 vitamin tablet...oh man!
I have tried almost all of the other energy drinks out there and this one beats them on taste and feelgood factor by a mile! If you can find it buy a case because its gonna go fast>

Believe the Hype! Bet you didn't see that line coming.
Taste - Excellent, possibly the best tasting 16oz. (or in Hype's case a little bit bigger than that) energy drink. Similar to Rockstar(which also has a great taste), but with more of a berry flavor than an apple flavor. Strong stuff too, so you might want to take a break while drinking it. Energy - Very strong. What do you expect, look at the size of the thing! Long lasting too. Monster is the only drink I can think off that psssibly beats it(and not by much.) Design - Basic and simple, a little boring. Kind of looks like a beer can, so watch out.
