Monster Energy: Lo-Carb

Will:
The Lo-Carb variation of Monster is... different. It has the same traditional monster energy flavor, but somewhat subdued. Its sort of like a watered down version of Original. I don't really see the point for an energy drink to produce a low carb version; its basically taking out the manliness of an energy drink. But then again, theres people out there who cant have a lot of carbs, so i guess it makes sense. Anyway, apparently carbs add a lot to the flavor of Monster, because the version without carbs just isn't the same. Other than the watered down taste, Lo-Carb is is mostly identical to Original.

One of the things i like best about the Monster Energy can design is its flexibility. To add a new flavor, all they need to do is change the color of the M logo in the middle. I think this adds a sort of collectible quality to it. If you have every color of can, all lined up, the result looks truly cool.

The energy of the Lo-Carb version really isn't too much different from that of the Original. Of course, as always with the low carb versions of drinks, the energy does take a slight hit. But its not so much to where its a really big negative.

Overall, while Lo-Carb Monster isn't my first choice or energy drink, not for its taste or its buzz, its still another quality product made my the Monster Energy company.
