Challenge - Pomegranate Cherry
Category: Water: Enhanced; Packaging: 20 fl oz (591 ml) PET

BevNET Review:
What would a line of enhanced waters be without the au courant pomegranate flavor? It�s hard to tell here � despite what the label says, SoBe leaves its pomegranate taste to be dominated by an overpowering rush of cherry flavor. And while that cherry flavor isn�t bad, it does completely hide the pomegranate. Regardless, this is probably our second-favorite Life Water. We could see ourselves getting through a bottle and maybe even buying it again � there�s something addictive about sweet cherries. Of course, the problem remains that we � or other consumers � would have to look really hard at the label to determine that this is, indeed, the Pomegranate Cherry product, but at least we�d get to enjoy the label�s excellent droplet pattern while we searched for the flavor line.

Energize - Passionfruit Citrus
Category: Water: Enhanced; Packaging: 20 fl oz (591 ml) PET

BevNET Review:
This is a sweet, appealingly fruity enhanced water that manages to avoid the bitterness of the Orange Tangerine. The passionfruit flavor isn�t overly detectible, but there is something vaguely tropical about the overall tone. Other than that, the bugs remain: Life Water has not been able to master the crisp, drinkable feel of the other enhanced waters and the writing on the label is too small, which may lead to consumer confusion.

Enlighten - Blackberry Grape
Category: Water: Enhanced; Packaging: 20 fl oz (591 ml) PET

BevNET Review:
SoBe's Blackberry Grape flavor tastes quite watered-down. Perhaps it is just the grape flavor used, but it's too weak for our liking. On a positive note, the grape droplet pattern on the label is the best of the lineup. The blackberry and grape flavors don�t seem to have much in common, and neither is particularly distinct in the mix. We'd recommend that they pick one or the other and increase the volume of it. Until then, this is our least favorite flavor of the Life Water lineup.

Shield - Orange Tangerine
Category: Water: Enhanced; Packaging: 20 fl oz (591 ml) PET

BevNET Review:
This is SoBe�s first major-brand offensive against the emerging glaceau juggernaut. The orange flavor is indistinct and has a somewhat bitter aftertaste, and the formulation doesn�t have any of that crisp mouthfeel that other enhanced waters have perfected. The bottle, with round shoulders and a raised SoBe lizard, is attractive and the label uses a funky, layered droplet pattern that we really like. But the flavor on the label is tiny and hard to read.
