Pit Bull Sugar Free Energy Drink Review

Sadly based on its sugared sibling's design, Pit Bull Sugar Free's can fails to look attractive. The silver and white just don't work together nicely as the main colours, and as a whole the can feels somber and impersonal. All the problems that plagued the original Pit Bull reappear; the dumb name, stupid slogan, multi-text, and the not so scary dog image, and while the can isn't cluttered, there are far more negatives than positives about it.

Pit Bull Sugar Free begins fizzily carbonated with ample focus on a fairly light and natural tasting lemon that's sourness is strong but feels right given the flavour. There's a brisk ginger ale that is noticeable early on, but it really only becomes a part of the experience nearing the end of it. The ale leans more towards being golden than dry, though it's not strong enough to truly be considered "golden." The ale itself has notes of a bland lime following suit, and has a dull under lap blend of various spices; all of them too hush to pin point. There's a bit of a acidic bite evident as the flavour ends, and this time around there's no oily coat left behind. Overall, Pit Bull Sugar Free tastes like it was built from the ground up to replicate its all calorie counter part as closely as possible without sacrificing taste, and they successfully did just that.

A sixteen oz. can of Pit Bull Sugar Free contains: caffeine, taurine, inositol, guarana, several B vitamins, and ginseng. Compared to other energy drinks, this ingredient cocktail isn't extremely potent, and its provided kick isn't extremely strong or long lasting. I had increased levels of energy for three hours, and there wasn't a crash at the end of it. Overall, since it follows its brothers by delivering a great flavour and a less than impressive kick and can, Pit Bull Sugar Free had no surprises and did nothing but meet expectations.
