    I like having an energy every once in awhile.. If I have to work even more.. It gives me a little burst of energy.. I just dislike the after affect.. I feel tired and i get a little head ache... Don't You?

    I tried it once, and it didn't do anything. But, then again, I naturally have a lot of energy, and never feel like I need a boost. The drink tasted okay, I guess. Some products like this I think, in large part, are labeled as "energy drinks" and make people think they are getting a boost, when they aren't really. It might be mostly in your head.

    Red Bull is easily one of the nastiest energy drinks they is! Someone told me it tasted like bubble gum before I first tried it...boy were they wrong :(

    Redbull although keeps you energized on a days when your tired, but is very bad for you. People also use to get "sugar highs".

    RedBull is amazing as a marketing company, but their actual product may not be what you are seeking. If you are seeking mega energy, then you need Kymera which tastes great and is super inexpensive in our bulk delivery, PowerPak format. Try Kymera in the bulk PowerPak format. Use coupon code JT30 and get 102 servings of Kymera Freakish Energy shot for just $29.99 shipped! Kymera Freakish Energy Try it now, you won't regret it!

    After walking into a 7/11 and saw it was on sale, I'd bought one to see how it was. Tasted like someone put a pound of suger into a 8 oz can with water. After 2 sips, I'd poured it down the drain! Got pissed that I'd spent $3 for it!

    I have tried several different energy drinks through the time, and i have found that RedBull so far is the best on the marked for me. None of the other energy drinks I have tried, have made me so energized as RedBull does. I am on the road for about 9 hours every workday,and RedBull energy drink is the one that keeps me fresh. RedBull is not only a great energy booster but it also tastes very good and refreshing. I once tried RedBull Sugarfree energy drink, but i did not liked is so much as the original. I thought that RedBull Sugarfree was too sweet and was not near so refreshing as RedBull Original. On the internet can be found several places where they say that drinking RedBull is bad for You and can cause health problems, but i have been drinking RedBull allmost every day for 3 years now,and have not noticed any health problems at all. So I don´t believe it can cause any health problems,if You don´t overdrive with drinking it and keep in mind that it has high level of coffeine. ... Read more

    Red Bull's the Budweiser of energy drinks, you could say - and there's a reason. In my opinion, and I know I'm one of the very few that would say this, Red Bull is WAY, WAY better than Monster. People say they taste relatively similar, and I'll just go ahead and say they're lacking taste buds. They SMELL similar? But the taste of Red Bull is distinct and glorious. While I don't get much 'oomph' after drinking a Red Bull, I love to drink them.

    after having a monster or rockstar, red bull just doesnt compare and its more pricey than the other 2 as well

    One of my favorite energy drinks although Monster DUB Edition is the best. You can't go wrong with Red Bull, both are the best and I drink both with great results.

    I went through an energy drink phase for a bit, but now I just prefer a strong cup of Joe to get me going in the morning.

    The best thing about red bull is their logo. As far as taste and effectivity, bah! Tastes like the aluminum can it comes in. Gives me a kool-aid buzz. Rather use 5 hour energy or black coffee.

    What can I say, I know it probably isn't very good for me but I can't even go a day without at least one Sugar Free Red Bull. I've always hated the taste of diet soda so when I discovered that I could get my caffeine fix from something that tastes good and hardly has any calories, I was thrilled. I've read a lot about it and can't find much of anything that I can really put any stock into showing that it's any worse for me than coffee or diet soda so I will continue to march to Sam's club and buy it by the case load! I LOVE my Red Bull! I'm sure that off all the bad things out there I could be eating or drinking, this one certainly can't be the worst one.

    i didn't like the smell. and the taste wasn't all that, but i felt pretty good just drinking half of the can. it only lasted two hours and i got the worst crash in my life. stay away if your worried about your weight and/or a diabetic.

    Red Bull has to be the best energy drink on the market. While I haven't found it to be the best tasting energy drink I have ever drank, it does pack the most punch and that's why we are drinking them after all right?

    This Energy Drink will "give you wiiings", that is untill your engines catch on fire and you crash into the ground! Red Bull does work for a good 2 hours, and then you will begin to feel the sour effects of this caffeine soaked wonder! Tastes like cough syrup and is very medicinal! Red Bull works (very well) so well that many countries including, Denmark and Uruguay have banned it outright! Plus, On June 2, 2009, an April 2009 batch of "Red Bull Cola" drinks imported from Austria were found to contain between 0.1 - 0.3 microgram of cocaine per litre according to Hong Kong officials. Also in Taiwan it has been found that the importer was due to launch a marketing campaign the next day. In Taiwan it is punishable by death, or a life sentence in prison to import such drugs. In Germany 11 out of 16 states have already banned the drinks by 25 May 2009. Testing of Red Bull has yielded contradictory results in regards to the cocaine claim by the Taiwanese government. This just will make it mo... Read more

    The slogon "Red Bull: It Gives you Wings" is very fitting - it obviously makes you loopy and although extremly popular this is not due to its bad, tacky taste this is due to the smart brains behind this drink that are great at marketing! In conclusion a bad drink but a very well marketed one!

    I used to work with some guys that drank this because they thought it was cool. Then they would have that crash mid-day. How cool is that? They should make another drink, call it "Dumb Ass." I'm sure people will buy it.

    This stuff is overly sweet. When I drink it I feel like my mouth is going to pucker and not let another sip in. It does give you energy though, even if its fake energy. It is good mixed with Vodka but that's only because it kills the sweetness.

    I've really developed a craving for the sugar-free Red Bull, sort of like a craving I developed for Diet Coke, even though the first few tries it tastes bad. I'll usually get one on a road trip to keep me from dozing off. As for a regular drink during the week, I'll never get it, just doesn't seem quite right in the middle of a workday.

    Blah. Blech. Eck. I am not a fan of Red Bull at all. I will take the vodka on the rocks, thanks ;) That super sweet aftertaste is horrible! Liquid crack in a can. The one thing I do like is the marketing. Red Bull being the name and Taurine being a main ingredient and them using the Bull which is the sign of Taurus :) Wow, I felt kinda smart there for a minute ;)

    This is an effective drink if you want to stay up all night studying or partying. Unlike other energy drinks I've tried, Red Bull keeps me energized and focused throughout the night. The taste isn't bad at all to begin with, and I've grown to like it a lot over time.

    For the non-caffeine addict, RedBull provides just the right amount of energy to boost to keep you up for that all-nighter. The only weakness is that its potency wears off the more you drink it. At first it just took a sip to keep me up, but now I have to drink the whole bottle. Still the taste is not bad and it slowly grows on you. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a solid energy drink.

    Suspiciously good. Anything that can make you feel normal after 3 hours of sleep and copious amounts of alcohol can't be good for you. UPDATE: How anyone, at any time, could study Trusts and Estates without Red Bull is beyond me. For making the study of Trusts and Estates humanly possible, Red Bull gets five stars (up from four).

    One evening I was working at the door of a concert at the local music hall that I volunteer at and the Red Bull Girls came by to hand out complimentary cans of the drink as marketing. We declined to let them in since we were selling drinks inside and letting jiggly girls in low cut tops in to hand out freebies isn't exactly good for bar sales. But they were kind enough to leave us a few cans at the door and I sipped on one through the evening. It worked. It kept me alert for the rest of the gig, gave me energy for teh clean-up, helped me drive home with no drowsiness, put the car away and tidy up the garage, come inside, empty the dishwasher and load it and go upstairs to bed. I still wasn't tired so I took the dog for a walk and got home in time to watch the sun rise on the back yard. I think I'm just catching up on the lost sleep now and that evening was back in 2005.

    I drank this once, a few years ago while doing some work on the computer. Sixteen hours later I found I'd written 2,956 reviews of every member of the Federal League, the old National Association, the American Association, Union Association, and Players' League, with supplementary reviews on their front office staff, ball parks, bat boys, records and nicknames.

    Tastes odd but gives a hard caffiene high that is hard to beat. It tastes like a mix of gummy bears and vodka. The crash after is terrible.

    Im in a Music group and we session every saturday. We atleast purchase a 12 pack of red bull before starting our sessions. Not the best energy drink, but it'll do the job for about 3-4 hours. The crash that comes afterwards is the downfall.

    One of the first I tasted and still my favourite. There's quite a sweet initial taste followed by a bitter after taste. It certainly perks you up but beware - if you drink too many in too short a time it tends to make you spacey,

    This drink I can say is the most overrated drink on the market. It tastes fine but energy wise I never feel much. It is annoying how almost every offbrand energy drink has the same taste too.

    I <3 Red Bull. Unfortunately since I also <3 Jaegerbombs, my tastebuds have forever associated the flavor of Red Bull with booze. This is only problematic when I need a kick in the ass at around 7am....sure the caffeine and taurine still work, but it makes me a little queasy. (I should probably also add that I'm a huge fan of energy drinks in general and I typically love the flavor of most of them...hehe).
