Hunid Racks 2 Pac
I enjoyed the original Hunid Racks drink quite a bit so I have high hopes for this version. So far this compamy has showed they are not just a gimmic and make quality drinks.Using the name of 2 pac is powerful and a good idea but they it better bring it as expectations will be high.
Packaging: Hunid Racks 2 pac comes in the usual 8.4 oz can. The can is black printed (not shrink wrapped) and is very similar to the original. Around the top are some printed phrases “Respect the name, Respect the Game, Respect the Drink” in a green font. Below these phrases is the name 2 PAC in large funky white font Right in the middle is the classic 2 Pac photo with him holding up his shirt so you can see his Thug life tattoo. Instead of the tattoo though there is the Hunid racks logo. The logo is a wad of 100 dollar bills with a rubber band around it with the Hunid Racks name around it. Not sure I like this. I think maybe they should have toned down the coloring on the logo. Back has Supplement facts. I like this can but I think I like the original can better. The 2 Pac photo is nice but the logo just does not fit in well with it. Grade C+
Slogan: “The Energy Drink for the Real Hustlers” Hard to go wrong with that one and they use it a lot in their website and ads. Grade B
Taste: The flavor of the original drink was awesome but what will this one be? Is it a new flavor or just a new can? Popping the top I get the scent of grape. Pouring it in a cup it comes out a purple translucent liquid with a low carbonation. I take a sip and it is a really nice grape soda flavor. It’s a clean grape soda taste that is not sticky sweet but has just the right amount of sweetness. Really it is one of the better grape flavored energy drinks I have had lately. Grade B- for taste
Kick/Ingredients: I drank it down quickly since it is a small can and the energy hit me pretty quick on my empty stomach. I did not get energized but I did get a smooth boost of energy that lasted me a good 3 hours. Beats a cup of coffee hands down. Far as I can tell the formulation is identical to the original with 84 mg Caffeine, 1050 mg Taurine, Ginseng, 52.5 mg Guarana, Inositol, Glucuronolactone, L-Carnitine , and a fair dose of B vitamins. There are 130 calories, 33 grams of carbs, and 32 grams of sugar(HFC). Fairly typical line up. C+ for kick/ingredients
Web Presence: Like I said last time the website 100racks.com is a really fun site. If you like rap music there is a lot there for you like songs and videos, pictures, a nice store with some good prices, and more. It is not a professionally designed site but is a well done one that is fun and easy to navigate. I would like to see some updated content though. They als have a myspace here. Grade B+ for web presence.
Recap:
I wish this drink came in a bigger can. It has a great taste(if you like grape soda) and is very drinkable. The kick is just a tad over average. The can is collectable for sure. I broke the baby out at work and all eyes were on me for sure. If you can still find this drink I suggest you grab a can for the taste and the fact it is collectable.
