Monster Hitman

Product Type:Functional: Energy Shot; Container: 3 oz
BevNET Review: Hitman LoBo is the lowest calorie flavor of the Hitman Energy Shot lineup with only 5 calories per bottle. Still, the flavor is surprisingly good, with what tastes like raspberry and blueberry flavors helping to conceal a moderate energy bite. Like the other shots in the Hitman line, this one has a fairly viscous body, drinking almost like a concentrated, non-carbonated Monster might. The energy ingredients include B vitamins, taurine, ginseng, glucose, L-carnitine, caffeine, inositol, glucuronolactone, and maltodextrin. It has a noticeable kick to it, which, when paired with the drinks pleasant flavor profile and low calories, make this a good energy shot choice. Definitely one of the better low calorie efforts that we’ve seen in the shot categoryReviewed on: 3/17/2009

BevNET Review: Sniper, which is one of the additions to the Monster’s Hitman line of energy shots, features a smooth cherry like flavor that’s followed by a mild energy bite. Sweetened with glucose and sucralose, the product has a sweetness that’s more like sugar than artificial sweeteners, with only a touch of aftertaste. The result is a 25 calorie shot that delivers bold, drinkable flavor that’s the best of the Hitman line. Like the other Hitman varieties, this product has a good amount of kick and it features a proprietary energy blend (caffeine, taurine, ginseng, inositol, L-carnitine, etc.) and B vitamins. On the packaging front, the “Sniper” name gives it a tone that’s more aggressive than the other varieties. Plus, the use of red as an accent color makes it stand out nicely. Overall, it’s an aggressive themed product, but the taste and kick make it one that’s worth a try.Reviewed on: 3/17/2009
