Anyone ever have a bawls before? I swear it has about 10X the amount of caffeine than any soda, coffee, or any type of caffeine beverage. I just had one and I’m wired. It's 3:15 AM and I'm sure I can got 5 more hours without any hint of being tired.

Sure, I drink bawls all the time.

Yeah, I think it actually has about 3x the caffeine of a 20 oz bottle of coke, I forget where I read that.

Most [school] nights, I'm up till about 3:30am, on Mountain Dew and Bawls.

I sent you and e-mail, not sure if you got it, so maybe you can PM me back, or e-mail me, whatever.

Ahh ... you have not enjoyed the taste of Bawls!

http://www.bawls.com/

... they recomend buying it from thinkgeek.com, who, of course, cannot ship food/drink products directly outside of the U.S.

Look at all the happy Bawls drinkers!! -- http://www.bawls.com/data/fanphotos/photo456-1.jpg

Red Bull Energy Drink

Ingredients: carbonated water, sucrose, glucose, sodium citrate, taurine, glucuronolactone, caffeine, inositol, niacin, D-pantothenol, pyridoxine HCL, vitamin B12, artificial flavours, colors

Nutrition Facts: Serving Size: 8.3 fl. oz Servings per Container: 1 Amount per serving: Calories: 110 Total Fat: 0g Sodium: 200mg Protein: 0g Total Carbohydrates: 28g Sugars: 27g

It doesn't really taste like anything else (you either love it or hate it... kind of 'herbal'?). It's pretty much just sugars and caffeine in big doses. I like it.

Red Bull is some nasty stuff. Way too tangy for me.

Bawls is good though. I don't usually drink it at night as I enjoy my sleep. But it's great for those early mornings.

Bawls rocks... we make sure to have several cases for each Lan Party.... viagra for the mind! Instead of a little blue pill, it's a little blue bottle, and just like viagra, it helps keep you up for hours!!!

that much caffeine can't be good for you.

Red Bull is banned in Canada, and it tastes like ass.

My favourite energy type drink is SoBe a-rush. it's actually palatable and doesnt taste like medicine.

I am waiting to see a drink that has Ingredients listing caffeine twice. I would just find it funny.

Thanks for the explanation of Red Bull. Sounds...interesting.

I've instead just ordered a case of Bawls, and even some Penguin mints. Great site, thinkgeeks.

Red Bull is amazing, it's great for lan parties to keep you awake, i use it at my exams to keep me focussed (and awake hehe) and when i go out i drink it with red vodka.

It is the mother of all drinks :D
