BevNET Review
This energy drink from the emergent Firefighter brand ends up tasting pretty soda like, with decent artificial orange flavor and not much of the caffeinated aftertaste that plagues many energy drinks. The attractive but too-busy 12-oz. “slim can” mentions that the drink is “Powered with CoQ10,” which would be important because…well, we’re not sure, and we don’t think most energy drink users are sure, either. But it does seem to have those other important energy drink ingredients, anyway, and the taste is more than adequate. We would like to see Firefighter apply the same ingredient principals to its energy drinks as it does to its sodas – i.e. no High-Fructose Corn Syrup – but other than that, it’s better than most of its competitors.
