Energy Bud? *shudder* Sparks it's NOT!

[jonnyGURU]

At least when they came out with Sparks they made it TASTE like an energy drink, not like beer.

I saw this Budweiser B-to-the-E at 7-11 and thought, "You've GOT to be kidding." It'sonly a 10 ounce can and cost $1.79, but I figured I'd have to try it just once.

HORRRRRRRRIBLE!!!

It's BEER, not a malt beverage, but actual malt, barley, hops BEER with caffeine, ginseng and guarana in it.

It's unreal. It's SO BAD. They could have made it taste like anything else. Hell... Even if they started with a Tequiza base, it would be ok. But they started with Budweiser and added crap to it and crap plus crap still equals crap. Instead of calling it B-to-the-E, the should call it crap-to-the-crap-power.

Whew! I had to chug a Natural Ice to get the tase of the B-to-the-E out of my mouth.

People will probably still drink it if it's trendy enough.

Wow, it's gotta be pretty bad if you're chugging Natural Ice to get it out of your mouth . . ..

Obviously it failed as an energy drink too. Your rant was weak and watered down compared to rants of a support tech scorned of ye olde days.

It did keep me up all night. Ugh! I needed the alcohol to be cranked up three fold to compensate. 😱

Why did you think something made with Buttwiper beer would taste good? Was the sangria clouding your thinking capabilities that much?

Trendy or not I actually liked the taste of Zima. Zima Gold was a little weird though.
