When I roll into the (Wild Wild West)
6 Shooter energy shot
Ok so this one has a pretty good name. Not sure why someone has not thought of it before. It just seems like such a good name for a shot. Will the shot live up to its name? Well let us check it out and see.
Packaging: It starts off with your typical 2 oz shot bottle. It is wrapped in a glossy black label that looks pretty classy. They do right by having the # 6 in an orange color that really stands out. People are used to 5 or 6 hour energy shots and this plays into that. In the background is a really nice tribal type horse logo. It is really nice but I wish it was easier to see(actually the photo really seems to make it easier to see?). The text at the bottom is the only drawback I see. It takes away a little from the classy clean look. Grade B
Slogan: “All Kick No Bull” is their slogan and it is great. I mean it takes a swipe at Red Bull and it goes well with the horse and western theme of the shot. Grade A
Taste: So opening the shot I get a nice berry scent. The liquid itself is an orangish pink. I take a sip and I get an earthy berry flavor with a hint of vitamins. It is not bitter but it has a taste similar your typical energy shot. It is not very sweet. I guess overall it is pretty much just that, typical. Grade C+
Kick/ingredients. So I drank it down and it got me going in the typical 15 minutes. I had a nice mid level buzz with no jitters. It was good for getting some work done and being able to focus. It was solid and lasted a good 4 hours with no crash. 6 Shooter is powered by 150 mg caffeine, Glucuronolactone, N Acetyl L Tyrosine, Ginseng, Taurine, malic acid, Maca, Goji berry and a big dose of B vitamins. It comes in at no calories, no carbs, and no sugars. It is sweetened with Sucralose. Kind of a typical energy shot but that is not a bad thing. You get what you expect from most shots and a little more. Grade C+
Web presence: They have a site here. No it is not a fun site with extreme sports videos and rock bands. It is nicely done and has plenty of product info as well as a store where you can by these shots and other healthy products. They also have a Facebook and a Twitter also. Grade B for web presence
Recap:
Ok so there is plenty to like about this shot. It comes in a really nice bottle, taste good, and delivers your typical expected buzz with a little extra. I can easily see you using this if you are a 5 hour energy fan. It does have the Maca root which sets it apart from your typical shot. I say if you get the chance give it a try. It could be the one for you.
