Why is SoBe killing all of their delicious energy drinks?!

[Eli]

Nooo!!!!

I had been wondering why I haven't been able to find SoBe No Fear lately. It has apparently been discontinued. WTF? Why would they do that? I thought No Fear was the main constituent of a popular mixed drink, and that alone would keep it around, but I guess not.. lol.

They also killed SoBe Adrenaline Rush and the No Fear Bloodshot.

The hell? I liked SoBe's energy drink lineup the most.

Yeah, I know they aren't great for you, but I've always contended that energy drinks in general are better for you than soda. At least they usually contain a myriad of vitamins and minerals, while soda is just empty calories.

I think the sheer Volume of a Sobe Drink might be its' downfall. I used to like Sobe too, but if you really want an Energy boost it's much more convenient and comfortable to down a Red Bull or other smaller drink.

Hmm.. Most other energy drinks are in the regular 16oz cans though. Only Redbull has stuck by it's strange can size.

I like Redbull, but not nearly as much as the more fruity energy drinks. No Fear was by far my favorite.

If I find out that they've discontinued the orange Rockstar Juiced, I think I may have a reverse heart attack.

I hope they don't take my NOS away either.. We must be seeing a thinning of the herd in the energy drink world. It's just surprising that one of the firsts would pull all of their products like that.

Who drinks No Fear?

I thought you were talking about this deliciousness and was getting all dismayed.

Some ingredient got banned for having alcohol or something in it. I can't remember exactly what happened but I remember an article about it.

I see nothing on the web about No Fear Energy drink being discontinued.

You're thinking of Kombucha, a tea fermented using a Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeast(SCOBY).

I'm talking about regular sugary, carbonated energy drinks that you buy at convenience stores the world over.

Looks like they are still selling it if you want to drink that stuff, just not under Sobe brand.
