BevNET Review
A lightly carbonated energy drink that uses the same formula (with the exception of carbonated water) as its non-carbonated counterpart. Featuring a light blue color and reishi mushroom extract, this product tries to offer something different in the way of flavor. It succeeds, but we could live without the blue coloring. The package is vibrant and funky looking, but we aren't quite sure what to make of the name "Black O-pium". Whether intended or not, it will likely imply some sort of drug reference, which will certainly alienate some consumers. Overall, a decent drink, but we think that the branding can be improved.
