BevNET Review: Red Bull has officially added a new 12 oz. slim can to its lineup. The formulation is the same classic Red Bull Flavor and the mid-size package gives the product a unique feel over competing 8 oz. and 12 oz. products. Whether or not consumers will buy into this is a real test for the state of the Red Bull brand. In our opinion, this will likely bring some consumers back to Red Bull who might have left for competing 16 oz. products, but the fact that the category has evolved at a much quicker pace than Red Bull is a potentially limiting factor for this brand in coming years. Overall, a clean-looking product, but it doesn't really bring anything new to the category in the way of innovation.

Redbull is the only energy drink without an annoying taste. Unlike other energy drinks Redbull does not rely on mass amounts of fruit juice to give it flavor. Energy drinks such as Monster, Full throttle, or Amp are geared more towards "pre-teens" who don't exactly "need" the energy. Redbull is like the "Megadeth" of energy drinks, being that it sticks the the formula that works. Some may see this as a virtue, others may see this as a fall-back. but if you are drinking an energy drink because you want some unholy mixture that tastes like green sweet-tarts, and orange juice (Monster Khaos,) You shouldn't be drinking energy drinks at all

BLECH!!!!!!

This must be what the south end of a northbound horse tastes like. Just goes to show you that great marketing can move lots of product, regardless of taste. I'm partial to XS energy drinks instead...
