Many of the Four Loko flavors contain 12 percent alcohol by volume, making it easy for those with even the highest level of tolerance to become intoxicated.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHA

BC sent out an email about not drinking it as well, or at least being careful if you do
 
I'm so glad prop 19 failed so that the wonderful citizens of CA can enjoy glorious concoctions like this instead.

I see, so it is the cost factor. If I wanted a quick buzz but have no money (like college students), i would buying these by the bundle.

Yeah, it's probably one of the cheapest ways to get smashed whereas Redbull alone is over $2 a can and then you gotta add in Vodka. This stuff reminds me of Sparks before they changed it...

Just reading about this crap reminds me of all the VRB's I use to drink back around 4-5 years ago...but no more.
 
This stuff tastes like shit. I'd rather drink the beers, the red bull, and espresso all separately.

It has a very strong after taste that makes every sip bad and there is a LOT of it in the can. The can looks fun but actually finishing one is a task just because of the fucking taste.

Had one of these tonight out of curiosity. This is really quite ridiculous. :thumbsup:


Should it be banned from capmuses? Absolutely not. There is no reason for this beverage to be banned before anything else.

and yet, it will kill you faster than marijuana.


think about it.
 
This is so retarded......They can still go buy red bull and mix it with vodka which is what they've been doing for like a decade before 4loko came along.

The media coverage of this is out of control. They demonize the drink but say nothing about the minors that were breaking national drinking laws when they consumed it. Why should adults be punished because of some retarded frat boys?

I hope all 50+ of these drink makers band together and get this overturned.

I found it easier to drink than most beers. If you haven't already been indoctrined in the shit = good taste (aka beer) then it's really no worse than any other cheap alcohol.
 
IDK how you do 40 hands but when we did it that wouldn't matter. if you finish one your hand is still taped to the 40 until you finish the 2nd one
 
I guess the date rapists will have to go back to Jagerbombs.

Dad, you know that really annoying guy at the party that gets too drunk and is in everybody's face until he pukes and passes out? Well, with Jagerbombs he annoys everybody all night long.

We've been drinking this practically constantly in my house for the last few weeks. It's awesome. The kids who get poisoning are stupid freshmen who don't know what "12% alcohol" means.

Exactly. Make something taste good and throw 12% alcohol in it. You're bound to get the kiddies alcohol poisoning then.
