Rage Inferno Energy Drink Review

Rage Inferno comes in a slim twenty four oz. bottle with a unique though ultimately gimmicky fire extinguisher top. I imagine the reason for the top is the sub name "Inferno," but the purpose of a fire extinguisher is to put out and stop an inferno, not to give you energy. Unlike NOS, which made sense to use nitrous oxide as its theme, as it increases power output in racing cars, Rage Inferno's whole fire theme isn't fitting and just results in gimmicks. The label design is fairly clean, but it's unexceptional. Is it really necessary to have a picture of a fire extinguisher on the label when the whole bottle is shaped like one?

Taste-wise, Rage Inferno begins a light and sweet cherry that's pleasing and fairly tart. It's followed by a mildly sour green grape that is quickly succeeded by a slightly stronger and sweeter red grape. Neither wholly tastes authentic, and both are treated as enhancing notes; bonding well with the latter part of the cherry. The red grape has a bit of an organic, earthy climax that's reminiscent of grape peel, but it clashes with its confection-like flavour body. There's then a vague pierce of sweetness steadily rising that, while it's unable to counter much of any of the prior earthiness, does secure the experiences likeness of a fruit punch. Once you near the end of the bottle, left coating your mouth is a syrupy and almost sickly sweet lemon tinted remembrance of the entire flavour. And since the coating is long lasting, each sip only adds to the unpleasant glaze. There's almost no carbonation, and this along with the drinks overall smoothness and flow make this twenty four oz. beverage feel like it's much smaller. Overall, Rage Inferno's taste is familiar to many on the market, and while the flavour isn't all too bad, it fails to match the creativity of the bottle.

Each bottle contains: caffeine(375mg), taurine, d-glucuronolactone, and several b vitamins. Although there are several staple ingredients missing, this ingredient cocktail's high caffeine content still gets the job done. I had a good five or so hours of jitter-light energy, and I did crash fairly hard once the hours came to a close. All in all, Rage Inferno's potent kick is the only real highlight of this otherwise run-of-the-mill energy drink.
