High Performance Flavor
This is an update to a hasty review I gave to NOS a long while back. Since trying NOS, I have been pummeled with new energy drinks. Though some proved to be enjoyable, most new drinks are a world of disappointment. As I ventured into this unknown territory of humdrum beverages, I found one drink to fall back on when another made me want to vomit. It was none other than NOS, the High Performance Energy Drink. NOS is packed with an energy blend that is on par with your Monsters, Red Bulls, and Rockstars of the world. What, then, makes NOS stand out every time I go to grab an energy drink? The flavor! NOS is an energy drinker's energy drink, with an old school bite and pleasant tropical flavor. NOS is without a doubt on the upper-tier of flavor, and the can is head and shoulders sharper than the competition, really eye catching. This leads me to my next point: NOS is ready to cruise past the competition. Coca Cola is set to limit Rockstar's shelf space in favor of NOS, and I can only assume they're planning on using their high-octane marketing prowess to bring the once-underground energy drink to new heights. They are already making their mark by sponsoring top NASCAR driver Kyle Bush, and I expect that they will expand further into the sports industry. With that said, I will make a prediction: NOS will be the third brand to compete with Red Bull and Monster. Based on taste alone, I know who my clear cut winner is. Congrats NOS, I will award you your much deserved 5th star.
Final Analysis: NOS will cruise into the winner's circle, no doubt.
one of the best energy drinks ive had in a while, i try alot of horrible tasting ones but this was tasteful and refreshing with a moderate energy boost, i strongly recommend
From the first look at the can, you know that you can expect a high quality drink. The product is very automotive-looking, and cannot be missed. After the pleasant scent, there is no doubt that this is a good drink, and the taste backs it up. I was really satisfied with the delicious fruit flavors, though it did seem a bit generic. However, there was no aftertaste, and I actually got a boost of energy (unlike most drinks today). Soooo, all in all, I am impressed with NOS.
After years of drinking the bull, I tried NOS and it's a new favorite. I was so tired of the "bull taste" it is great to find a brand that provides the same benefits with a better taste.
I drank a can at my computer one afternoon and the hours flew by. I had trouble getting motivated until I cracked into the can, and 5 hours later I realized I worked all day.

It's GOOOD!
I like it. Good Taste. No aftertaste or mediciney taste. Seems to have done the job of waking me up this morning. I had no idea what NOS stood for until I read the review on it. Nitrous Oxide, kinda scary, but kinda cool.
I found NOS to have a very palatable and refreshing taste. I would compare it to a n AMP or Full Throttle with a tangier bite to it. As it the energy it provides, for me at least, I've found this to be the most potent, often leaving me groggy after the effect has worn off. Thus I drink NOS with soem trepidation. Still, a great product and excellent branding!
Thats what the can says and I have to agree, NOS has a very noticeable energy boost. Also, NOS tastes great, even though it isn't much different than SoBe's Adrenaline Rush. No aftertaste either.
All in all, a great drink, but without a unique taste, I doubt I will go out of my way to buy it again.
