Dark Dog Organic 50 Calories Energy Drink Review

Dark Dog Organic 50 Calories is a terrible name; "50 Calories" is a prolix and clumsy way of saying "lite." But the name "Dark Dog" does not make any sense on this largely silver design, as the only thing dark here is the tiny picture of the namesake dog and some black text. That portion of the beverage is the traditional hardcore look for an energy drink, but that clashes with the "Organic" title and predominate look of the elixir.

The original Dark Dog Organic was a successfully peculiar take on the traditional Red Bull formula, but stripping the potable of sugar brings the flavor to the realm of bargain bin energy drinks. Effervescence is dead-on-arrival, leaving the heavy liquid to bog down your palate and test your gag reflex. The creamy vanilla and playful bubble gum of the full-calorie variety are extinguished here, resulting in a flavor that is pure bitter nastiness from all the extracts, juices, and the yerba mate, a tiring triptych that never works in trying to craft a cohesive caffeinated cocktail.

Each can contains: vitamin C, B vitamins, a legion of extracts and 114 milligrams of caffeine. The kick is the strongest player here, but it is still only a two hour kick. In the end, Dark Dog Organic 50 Calories is a nonsensical energy drink that is almost astonishingly agonizing.
