You can relax the Max is in control
Max Watermelon 12% alcohol
Ok so like my buddy Bigredboots over at Possessed by caffeine I too rushed out to grab as many caffeinated malt beverages before the ban started. It appears I was not the only one though. I found a lot of stores were already sold out. I had to hit a bunch of different stores off the beaten path. I did manage to score several different alco pops though. I think this ban is total bs. Young people are still going to get over the top drunk. Trust me they will find a different cheap drunk. I am sad that all of us more responsible people will also be deprived of this cheap drunk. Anyway let’s get to my review before I start cussing the FDA.
Packaging: How can you go wrong with a big 23.5 oz pink can. I can see this easily appealing to the ladies. It is a pink and green with some edgy fonts. The can is clearly labeled with alcohol content as well as “Must be 21 to purchase” I really pity the kid whose parent is too stupid to realize this is not an energy drink. It’s huge and clearly labeled. The can is a bit girly for me but it is pretty. Grade C
Slogans: None that I could find. Grade F
Taste ect: So I popped the top on the monstrosity and got some sweet watermelon followed by a malty scent. I pour some in a cup and it comes out very pink and very fizzy. I take a sip and get mostly bitter malt liquor upfront followed by some sweet mild watermelon. This is quickly washed away by the alcohol though. This is one drink that really tastes most like malt liquor. For such a girly drink I would have thought they would make it sweeter. I have definitely had better. Grade C-
Kick/Ingredients: Ok so I needed to clean out my garage and we all know that is a lot of fun. So I drank a cup(about 8 oz) of this and got started. After my second cup I was feeling pretty good. I grabbed my new Monster Magnet – Mastermind vinyl and threw it on my turntable out in the garage (I have s complete stereo out there with some huge speakers). I was feeling tipsy and energetic. I downed my 3rd cup and really tore through this task at a breakneck pace. Hell I was enjoying myself, singing along, playing some air guitar, and annoying my neighbors with the volume(and my bad singing). The next 2 hours went by in a blur of stoner rock, dust, heavy lifting, and a general alcohol and caffeine fueled frenzy. In the end I really got stuff done and had a great time. I was buzzed and half drunk for a good 3 hours. Not sure how much caffeine is in this drink but I peg it at around 160 mg. Then of course you have 12 % alcohol and most likely a crap load of calories. Grade B for kick/ingredient
Web presence I could not find any site at all. Max is made by Joose though. Grade F
Recap:
Ok so I have to say this was some pretty good stuff as far as getting drunk and having energy. Hell if this can turn cleaning out my garage into a party then I have to say I am impressed.
