RATING: 5.2 OUT OF 10.
Popeye was
never one of those things I really got into when I was younger. I always found
his voice and his disproportioned arms unappealing. I was happy to try an
energy drink bearing his likeness, though. The flavors are Bruiser Blackberry
and Clobberin' Clementine, the latter of which I would be trying today.
Clementine
isn't exactly a flavor I see often in my energy drinks, so I was eager to try
this in hopes of trying something really unique. Upon tasting the liquid, it is
unique for an energy drink, though it isn't that profound and lacks a certain
amount of personality. The flavor just doesn't 'pop'. It is a blend of white
grape, apple, and clementine juices, which I figured would taste a lot better
than it did, but I am still pleased with it overall.
160
mgs of caffeine and B vitamins is about all this drink has to offer. The B
vitamins are negligible, as that leaves caffeine as the only energy ingredient.
160 mgs is on par with the major contenders in the energy drink game, but the
lack of other key players holds Popeye's blend back from impressing me.
Overall, I felt a slight kick, but noting to amazing.
I
am pretty disappointed with Popeye so far. The taste is acceptable, but the
kick it provides is pathetic. The only thing it is worth is a collector’s item
for people who collect energy drinks or Popeye collectibles. I suggest you hold
on to your money unless you fit those categories.
