Waking the Demon
Hardcore Energize Bullet Blue Rage
Once again we come upon the fringe. This is the area that is not for the faint of heart or the weak. In this area we find the rare energy drinks. The hardcore energy drinks. Do we ease slowly into this zone so as not to disturb things. Are we scared of the powers we might come upon? Hell no! We here at Edjunkie.com jump in with both feet like Bruce Willis in a die hard movie. We live for this stuff.
Packaging: I have to admit this is a first. Hardcore Energize bullet comes in a giant test tube. Some think it looks a little obscene and while that may not be its intention is definitely works when it comes to grabbing attention. The tube about 6 inches and is an opaque plastic with a red screw on lid. It holds 2.9 ounces. You can see the blue liquid inside though. This plastic tube is supposed to be virtually indestructible and is very thick. I tried to break on and I mean I really tried and it is very rugged. This should travel well. The tube has a clear label that has the Name “Hardcore” in a yellow and black font that really has a rugged cement type look to it. Below this it reads “Energize in a red and whit font that dominates most of the front label. After this is a streaking black bullet graphic that reads “Bullet” in a font that is similar to the Hardcore one. Around the neck of the tube is a yellow strip that reads” Extremely Potent”, “Read label before drinking”, and “Must be 18 or over”. On the back you have supplement fact and directions. Nice job in picking out a package that stands out. I think the graphics and fonts work well in letting you know this is a serious energy drink. Grade A
Slogan: Fun some fun ones on their myspace page like “Hardcore Energize Bullet is blasting your grill with a shot of Hardcore Energy! Or “Smack you in the face with energy” Lots of tongue in cheek fun for sure. I like these. Grade B for slogan
Taste: Unique packaging yes but unique taste? I twist off the cap and get the scent of a blue raspberry like in a Kool-Aid or a blue freezer pop. I am a bit worried about how it will taste since it has a lot of caffeine. I take and I am surprised. It tastes to me exactly like a blue freezer pop. It has that blue raspberry flavor and is slightly artificial tasting with only a hint of after taste. Really I have to say it is damn tasty for a shot and I could drink a whole can of a drink if it tasted like this easy. Grade A- for taste.
Kick/Ingredients: It was good so I partook of it rapidly. In about to minutes it was like a sniper had shot me in the head with a 50 caliber bullet of energy from a mile away. Bam! My brain was violated by the massive rush of energy. I was rockin and rollin in fine fashion. There is a reason I call this a hardcore energy shot. I was seriously jacked up and in a great mood. I felt I could take on Anderson Silva in a UFC cage and finish him in the first round and then go ahead and work out my remaining energy pummeling Chuck “the iceman” Liddell until he tapped out. I had energy to spare and it lasted for 5+ hours easily with no crash. This energy comes from a unique list of ingredients. 300 mg of caffeine, L-Tyrosine, Glucuronlactone, Ginseng, Theobromine, Policosanol, Rhodiola rosea, and a good dose of B vitamins. You get this with no sugar, 12 calories, and 3 grams of carbs. Grade A for kick/ingredients
Web Presence: There is not a website just for this Bullet but there is one for their parent company atisatoritech.com that is pretty nice and has all the info about Hardcore Energize bullet you need. This is a very well done site and has an Overview, ingredients, and a Q&A about the product. It is very professional and easy to navigate. They also have a Myspace that is kept up to date. I will give them a grade of B- for web presence.
Recap:
Man this is one of those for us hardcore junkies. It really has a great taste for a shot and provides a massive amount of energy. It comes in an interesting container that is super portable. I suggest carrying it in your front pocket for maximum effect lol. Really though this is a great product and I highly recommend it if you think you can handle it.
