Monster energy is the 2nd largest energy drink company in the world, so how can anyone dislike them? In this video I discuss numerous reasons, and its not just based on their flavors. As a company, overall, we are going to look at a lot of the reasons they are who they are and the companies they took out in the process.

Kyle is offended
He'll get over it. 😂
😡
Yes, he will.
@@THPS4. still not over it :(
@@CollectorKyle a whole 5 months later lmao
I love monster because you get value for your money , red bull is same price for half the size
Funny.... I quote that in my video. Rockstar made the 16oz can advertising twice the size, same price, and monster stole it (borrowed it, whatever) Dont tell me you're stealing things like Monster does! They're brainwashing everyone! 😂
Just get a venom
Red Bull tastes like crap anyway
@LazerCherg ye taurin
So what’s the best
People say Monster is extremely sweet... i think Red Bull and Rockstar are the sweetest
Well, by sugar content alone, Rockstar has the highest sugar content out of the three, then Monster and then Red Bull. Monster also uses sucralose as an extra sweetener, making it even sweeter. But, we all have different tastes, and they are all fairly close, so theyre all pretty sweet. 👍
@CaffineMan yeah I haven’t really tried many energy drinks and I think that is because of Monster. The first time I tried original monster, I really didn’t like the after taste, which I now know is sucralose, and I thought that attribute was the same for all energy drinks and that’s why I always kind of shied away from them.
Tbh Red Bull tastes like a watered down version of monster
I actually like Monster definitely the Monster Ultra is my go to drink they was first company got me back into energy drinks
I know a lot of people love Monster and I don't have much bad to say about the Ultras. Im happy that they realized they had to expand out to sugar free energy drinks and they did a decent job with some of them. I mean, they are the 2nd ranked energy drink company, for good reason. I just prefer others.
The ultra line is decent but in my opinion they seem to have a aftertaste but once you get used to it there not bad
Which ultra flavor? Mines the ultra white (note ive never had ultra black, red, or blue)
@@Dcn8r22 my favourites are red it has a nice berry flavor and white.Blue barely has flavor and it irritates my throat idk.Black/blue is good for those who like original monster flavor but its too sweet but i dont like it.
@@CaffeineMan1 monster ultra paradise is very good
If you listen quietly you can hear an army of Kyle's marching to his house.
Thank goodness they don't know where I live
Solid video. I understand your dislike about the business practices of Monster energy drinks. On the flip side, there are few flavors that I enjoy from Monster that simply are not found in our brands of energy drinks. The main one is the Ultra Sunrise drink that has a strong orange-like flavor. It is very easy to find a flavor and I tend to purchase it often. Other drinks are more of a hunting season for any certain flavor or brand. At times I don't have the time or energy to go around town search for various drinks. Your reviews and opinions are well taken and it is why I keep coming back to view your videos. Entertaining, informative, and unique formate to share all things caffeine. Perfect for these products. Thank you for your hard work, time, and energy you place into these videos. Cheers !! FYI, I finally found Fresa Rose Bang drink. It was good but way too sweet for my taste.
Thanks for the long, in-depth, complimentary comment!!! Very much appreciated! Im glad I can provide you with good information in a non-boring way!
Now.... lets see how long before the hate comments come through. Im shocked there havent been any yet.
Robert Theodore Garcia, i completely agree with everything you say! I love monster for their product but their business practices I’m not very fond of. I love the monster rehab, java, and the juice line. I have not yet tried the ultra series but that is the next drink I’d like to try. I really liked what you said about “there are few flavors that I enjoy from monster that simply are not found in other brands of energy drinks”.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Blaming energy drinks for someone drinking too many is like saying video games make people violent
Agreed! I said it in several of my other videos that energy drinks dont kill people. People kill people. In my How Much Caffeine is Too Much Caffeine video, I give numerous cases where people were hospitalized or even died from energy drinks, but it wasnt the energy drinks fault, it was the people who over consumed them. One of my favorite examples is when a drunk driver hits someone. Do they blame the beer company? No. Its the person. So why do the energy drinks get the blame for a persons poor judgement. its not right.
Monster, is the Disney, of energy drink companies.
😂😂😂
Bryan M not Red Bull ?
@@danieldevine5347 i think Redbull is bellow Monster
I valentino Rossied your comment ( took it to number 46) XD
lol they sue everyone too just like disney
Your points at around 5:30 about how people’s bad decisions are the problem is completely true. Love that.
Energy drinks have the amount you should drink on them. They just don’t read labels. Smh.
Thanks!
2:04 "hate is too strong of a word"
re-reads title of the video
One of my co-workers told me he was addicted to monster and once had to go to the hospital cause he drank too many in one day.
Yep, that can happen. Everything in moderation.
How many cans is too much?
@@edxander7169 you can die from 44 monster
@@Trulygodly 44 cans of monster in a day? What the hell lmao
@@Trulygodly or did u mean a different brand/model of monster? 😅
I absolutely love this video. My mom and dad are always complaining when I have an energy drink ( even though I’m 29 and don’t live with them lol) and it gets old. They blame the energy drink instead of the people over consuming and I love the drunk driver/ Budweiser analogy. 👌
Awesome! Glad you liked it and hopefully I have you some ammunition for your next energy drink debate with them. Unfortunately, if they are anything like my parents, it will just go in one ear and out the other. How can WE know more than THEM? They're the parents. They know whats best for us. 😂
If they like CZcams, you should show them some of my videos on the healthier energy drinks. It might make them feel better about them if they know more....instead of listening to the media.
Intros too long man. Love the videos but always find my self skipping the first 3-5 minutes. Other than that awesome work!
In more than 95% of my videos, I try to use time stamps so people can go to whereever they want to go, in case there werent timestamps in this video. This was just one big long complaint. In general I will go over company info, ingredients and the taste test. I put timestamps in the description box and I have even started putting them into a pinned comment for those using mobile devices. I try to trim down the videos where I can, but they all do tend to be a bit long...which is why I use timestamps. Hopefully you find them useful! Thanks for watching! Appreciate it!
if his intros are too long skip them. its that simple lmao.
M65 he just said he does lmao
The monster purple hydro HAS to be the best monster. It tastes exactly like grape Gatorade. if you haven't had it before I STRONGLY recommend it
Should taste more like Powerade, since Monster is also associated with them. I mention it in my review. But, yes, Gatorade and Powerade are fairly similar!
czcams.com/video/dqy25Tti124/video.html
My favorite Monster was the M80. Tasted like a great pineapple drink. Sad they don't make it anymore
I know. Monster reminds me of Mountain Dew in the fact that they release soooooo many new drinks, that they can't possibly keep them all on the shelves so some need to be discontinued. Unfortunately, even though they may sell a LOT of them, if its not the most popular flavor, they end up discontinuing it and make a LOT of people angry (or sad) about it.
They still produce it as 'Ripper', I don't think it's in US but plenty countries in Europe have this, it's the same flavor just less juice (they went from 80% to 50% then to 30% and it's now at 20%)
Honestly all your points are valid. I still personally like Monster because I love sweet drinks, and also because in my country (Poland) not many big brands are availible. Red Bull is half the size for a higher price, and in Poland where there's a strong mentality of getting the most value for your money, it's simply better to get 2 times the size for a lower price while still getting a known brand. Obviously there are local brand cheap energy drinks here, but most of them taste bad and even if you find a good taste, it usually feels watered down, as if it was half the intended drink and half water to save the price. We used to have Rockstar which I liked very much, but for some reason I can't find it anywhere these days. For all these reasons, Monster is the go-to international energy drink brand in Poland. We also have 2 fairly big local brands - Tiger and Black. Some of them are good, but some flavors suffer from the problems that I mentioned earlier. I wish we had more choice, maybe one day other brands will expand enough to reach Poland.
Well, Monster is the 2nd largest energy drink company for a reason. Millions of people love it and they make a billion dollars selling it, so it definitely has to be good. Ive even done some additional reviews after this video where I have been finding more Monsters that I actually like.
I used to drink monster, but i found it didnt have an effect on me. (i work night shifts). It just made me more tired in a way. I switched to reign, keeps me awake the whole night
Drinking a monster while watching this - and man i love that battery acid type flavor.
although I think monsters are super good tasting - I can see where you are coming from. I remember you mentioned in one of your videos you don't like a lot of carbonation, and monster has a ton of carbonation. And the battery acid type taste might be something a lot of people dislike. Great video!
It always humors me when non energy drink consumers say redbull has more caffeine than monster or -insert drink here-, when redbull caffeine count is super low. Basically to every non energy drink consumer, redbull has the highest ammount of caffeine ever.
Oh yeah, high carbonation and usually high sugar. BUT they do have a lot of drinks and the more that Ive tried since Ive had my channel, the more Ive found that have been pretty good. As for caffeine, both companies usually have the standard energy drink amount of 10mgs per ounce. The Monster is a 16oz can at 160mgs. The mini 8oz red bull is 80 mgs and their 16oz red bull is 160.
disagree with you on the monster flavor but i didnt realize how bad their business practices are. thanks for the info my man. love the videos as always
Glad you liked the video and feel free to disagree with me anytime you like. I dont mind! 😀
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you for pointing out these facts. Energy drinks are not the blame, human overconsumption and cheap ingredients are the blame. Monsters low price point comes at a cost.
You're welcome!
Unfortunately, the media and general public find it easier to just blame the drinks and must have some secret conspiracy to try and take them out of business or just make us feel bad about drinking them. But, if you are educated on the topic, you'll always be the one making them look dumb. As soon as someone says "Energy drinks are bad for you..." I get goosebumps and take a deep breath and ask "why?" to see what comes out of their mouth....and then take them to school.
Shout out to Monster Energy It's a M.? Drink Responsible K.
A little off topic. They make a 5 hr energy shot size, bang shot. Got it at walmart at the register. Gotta review it!!!
They do the only flavours we have is the grape and cotton candy so far
Ive seen Rainbow unicorn an blue rez.
Bang actually makes several of the energy shots and its on my list to review. Energy shots havent really performed well on my channel so Ive been holding off while I try to make a dent in these energy drink requests...as well as the occasional product and informative video. From what Ive seen at Vitamin shope they have it in Bangster BErry, Rainbow Unicorn, PEach and Purple Haze. Im sure other places have different ones. I could probably look it up on the Bang website....but... Im busy replying to comments 😂
The reason why I dislike Monster now is because they changed the formula and also because Monster has so much sugar, plus they use to much preservatives to make their energy drinks last long. I'd rather have Guayaki than Monster or Runa Guayusa.
Yeah, they like their sugar. And Preservatives are a necessary evil, so a lot of people have to use them. Nothing wrong with some healthy Yerba Mate though!
The classic Monster taste is pretty good, but for some reason it's even better in their Absolutely Zero version of the drink. It's the same taste - or even better - without the sugar. Definitely my favorite energy drink but I'm not sure they make it anymore.
I think Ive seen it recently? If it came off the market they may have been doing it to repackage it maybe? They're been redoing the packaging/graphics on a lot of their drinks lately.
A main issue I have with many Monsters (the OG as an example) is that i hate the taste of the apple juice they have. A common suggestion to people that don’t like the “Monster” taste is to not get one with Apple juice in it.
Also you’re right. I love the Aussie Lemonade one but the sugar amount (46g to be exact) makes it a hard sell for me to consume often. I often choose the Rehab ones instead, and I avoid almost every one that uses the apple juice.
Monster Ultras are a sure favourite of mine. I find that so many energy drinks have the same sour and strange aftertaste. I've yet to try a wider selection of other energy drinks though, so I''ll be sure to check some out!
So many other energy drinks to try out as well. Dont get me wrong, I do like some of the Monster Ultras, but be sure to browse through my page because ive gone over hundreds of energy drinks with hundreds more to go. Thanks for watching!
Video starts at 3:00
I've came across your channel and found this video whilst researching the history of the monster brand. great video!! I've learned a lot about them. I've recently started trying out monster drinks, especially their juiced flavours like mango loco, pipeline and nitro superdry, they're really nice.
But They're all full sugar monster drinks, how many cans per week would you recommend? Is having 1 or 2 cans a sensible approach?
Welcome to the channel!!! I hope you enjoy all that my channel has to offer!!!
To answer your question I first have to preface it with "im not a doctor', lol... but its true, Im not. Its really a matter of how your body reacts to sugar. I started having less and less sugar in my drinks about 3 years ago just because I wanted to be healthier. There are some people that can burn off sugar faster and others who don't. Its a matter of how sedentary you are. Even some people that are very active like to have zero sugar energy drinks. Do I, personally, think 1 or 2 cans of sugared energy drinks are ok? I do... although I do recommend looking into some of their Ultra flavors or even other companies like Ghost, GOrilla Mind, C4 and lots of other companies that are sugar-free. Currently, there are more sugar-free energy drinks on the market than sugared. That being said, there are some people that just hate the taste of sugar-free drinks and that is perfectly fine. 1 or 2 a week shouldn't break the bank. I mean, look at how many people drink soda and those are heavy in sugar, and should be drank sparingly as well. Hope it helps.
Yeah, I mentioned my dad only drinks one monster flavor which is the ultra white, but since this quarantine is making me bored and I'm taste testing everything by drinking 1 drink a day, so far in Monster, ive had all the ultras (excluding black, red, and blue) all the hydros (excluding mean green, manic melon, purple passion, and blue ice) and just today the original that started it all.
Sounds like an interested way to test them all out! Gotta get that Manic Melon Hydro though! LOL
I cant sleep after drinking a whole can of monster punch. 😭😭😭
If you have tasted that many Monsters and haven't found anything you like. Then you are not human.
Actually, this video was a bit older and still somewhat new to reviewing the drinks. As Ive reviewed more, Ive found several that I liked. Monster Maxx Mango, Monster Ultra Fiesta, Ultra Watermelon, Ultra Peach and several others. Feel free to keep watching my videos to find out more about the Monsters Ive tried. 👍👍👍
what's the cleanest feeling caffeine-based drink that you've ever tried (Not feeling cracked out after drinking it)?
I understand the points made here, the only thing I can comment on is that they take very good care of their athletes with pay.
Well, they made over a Billion dollars this year, so Im sure they support the athletes that help them bring in even more revenue. Gotta spend money to make money! Thanks for watching! 👍
Hey CaffeineMan! Just wanted leave a comment saying that even though i dont really use caffeine products, i still love your channel because of the informative nature of your videos. I hope you soon reach that big 10K mark. Keep on keeping on!
Thanks! I really appreciate that! Im glad Im able to help keep people informed on these topics and although I do a lot of energy drink reviews, I still like to get other caffeine related content out there as well. The big 10K is slow to arrive. Im not complaining though!!! I only say that because I was just getting 50-100 subscribers a day so, when I hit 9000, I thought it was inevitable...but then it slowed down to 15-20 a day. LOL!!! Some would say there was an algorithm change, but I just blame summertime. Thanks for watching!!!
I was a huge fan of Monster original back in the 2000 era. My buddy liked Red Bull. Different strokes. I've been curious about your own reasons since I discovered your channel. Thanks for the insight!
I knew Id hinted at it for a while and figured now was the best time to get it out there. Now I dont have to hint anymore. Glad you liked it!
I would like to see you try the monster import, i really like it but i cant pin down the flavor. Maybe a little vanilla? Im not sure, but i think maybe you would be able to tell. Keep up the good work👍👍
I can add it to my list. It might be a while before I get to it though as the list keeps growing. Thanks for watching!
@@CaffeineMan1 Thank you!
You should do either a blindfolded taste test or a tier list of all energy drinks
Tier List of all the drinks is on my to-do list, but Im going to wait until Ive had a few more on my request list that I havent tried yet so that I have an accurate representation.
CaffeineMan you have a request list??? Whats on it? Or am I gonna have to wait and find out 😂
@@romanm90 It started off as an imaginary short list in my head....but people just kept requesting stuff, so I had to make an actual written list on a post-it note.... Then, people kept requesting before I could make the video, I had to start a list on my computer....so, yeah, I have a list!!! I dont necessarily ask for requests, like a DJ or something. People just make requests. Sometimes people DEMAND requests and those usually dont happen, but the nice ones get put on the list. I don't discuss the details of the list though, because sometimes the list gets shifted around a touch here and there. But, I do make sure I try to get to everything on this list. I think, the longest anyone has waited has been 12 weeks...and thats just because I can only do 1 video a week. Currently on my request list, there are 21 energy drinks. And thats just the request list. I have my own personal list of 5 energy drinks, plus the several caffeinated Products and Informative videos I need to do.... so, guess what....?
Im not going anywhere. You should hang around and see what I got to offer. LOL!!!
i drink one monster per day , my question is do i finish fat and ugly because of that?
You should make a video about the ECA stack.
Hey I’m glad I found your channel I’m a huge energy drinker so it’s always good to hear opinions about different energy drinks. Your reviews are great, very informative and I like seeing all the cans in the background
Thanks so much! Glad you like it!
I'd agree with how they gave energy drinks a bad name. My mom and grandmother won't stop brining it up. I'll prove to them that energy drinks have similar caffeine content than a large McDonald's coffee. Actually less than a McDonald's coffee. It gets so annoying.
The only monster I buy is monster rehab peach. Yep
In that case... I might have to revisit it. Its been a while.
mike roberts, I’m a huge fan of another drink called Peace Tea. They have a Georgia peach flavor and it sooooo good, the peach rehab kinda reminds of the flavor. ( not just because it’s peach flavored)
I actually tried that Peace Tea before I started my channel and really liked it. I might have to look for it again.
Yeah man peace tea is pretty good, what if they made an “energized” version?🤔
The peach is good and no bubbles
I get your point regarding the beer-drink driving comparison.
Journalists/politicians hit the energy drink companies because
- Energy drinks are relatively new, when you consider alcohol has been around for hundreds of years
- Often its 13-25 year old drinking energy drinks. Their concern for the "impressionable" is virtue signalling at its finest
- Alcohol spans all classes, whereas energy drinks more likely to be consumed by lower-working class people compared to middle-higher class people. Journalists/politicians and older people in general are so far removed from energy drinks they simply hate their foreignness and unfamiliarity.
Its a great shame for all of us who consume responsibly as part of a balanced diet/exercise - having to accept the stigma of people looking down on our hobbies!
I can agree with a lot of what you said, although I do debate a little bit on what classes drink them. There are plenty of business people and middle class people that use them to get them through work. There are lots of blue collar workers that use them, as well as (to some people surprise) the medical community. Doctors and Nurses work long hours and use these drinks. They are educated and know which ones are good for you and which ones are bad for you. Also, people that workout (being sterotypical here, not ALL workout people) pay to go to the gym and usually buy expensive foods (organic) as well as supplements to help build their body. Those are all costs that not all lower working class people can afford. Just generalizing though. So, Im fairly confident class isnt the issue.... but age certainly is. And luckily enough we are jumping on the healthier energy drink bandwagon now to help people change their minds. If people continue to share my videos and get the word out on CaffeineMan, we can change the opinions of thousands! Millions!!! Ok, caffeine kicking in. More comments to respond too. Thanks for watching and commenting!!!!
Yeah I haven’t really tried many energy drinks and I think that is because of Monster. The first time I tried original monster, I really didn’t like the after taste, which I now know is sucralose, and I thought that attribute was the same for all energy drinks. That’s why I always kind of shied away from them. But now that I know that not all energy drinks contain sucralose, I think I’ll be more open to trying some more of them.
Well, feel free to peruse my channel for something that may interest you and looking forward to hearing your experiences with them. I did a top 10 list if you are looking for some of my favorites.
I love how you are really good at this +sub
It being a 16 oz can after rockstar shouldn’t count considering every energy drink after that did the same thing monster was just the first one that caught on
It's definitely not a good reason and nothing I can overly defend. Everyone copies everyone. Its just how it is. If someone comes out with a good popular flavor, everyone is to follow suit. It happens.
Bro probably never sleeps because of the amount of energy drinks he’s consumed
What is this "sleep" thing you speak of???
after this savage vid the first thing to do on Monday is selling Monster stock if you can before the crash!
😂😂😂
I don't think my 10,000 subsci....ALMOST 10K...almost... subscriber count, will have that big of an effect on their stock. And if it does...Im sure a lawsuit will be flying my way next.
Yay! Caffeine man! Almost hitting the 10k milestone, glad I could be here to witness! Keep up the great content : - )
Thanks! Glad you were here too! Appreciate the support and I'll keep making the content if you keep watching it!!!
The only products I’ve had from Monster are their Zero Ultra, Reserve, Rehab, Super Dry, and Low Carb drinks. The only one I haven’t tried is the original one.
No need to try that one... TRUST ME!!! 😂
IM WITH YOU !! Monster taste really sweet ;p
and doesn't give me much energy, I always go for BANG, rockstar 300mg+, or good old black coffee :) great video :)
Thanks! Glad you liked the video!👍
what? monster is the one that gives me more energy..at the point yeah i feel sometimes about to have a hearth attack.
Have you tried V8 energy. Cheaper than most no of energy drinks. I work night shift. I use energy drinks help speed in production and stay alert. Found Monster gives a reverse effect and stopped with Reign. Energy then a crash. Spider orange was good but they took it off market. I have drank energy drinks for years since I work night shift. Thanks for letting us know mabout other energy drinks.
Here you go!

No worries! Don't feel obligated. Its perfectly fine to lurk if you need to lurk. I'll know in my heart that you are there! And if you do comment late, late is better than never.....but never is ok too. Go with your gut. 👍😀
I love monster because it tastes so flipping good. And I'm speaking for a lot of their flavors
Yeah, I didn’t expect everyone to agree with me since it is the second ranked energy drink company out there 😂
And I’ve been trying more of their flavors and been impressed with a few👍🏻
@@CaffeineMan1 favorite flavor Monster series is Java and favorite Java flavor is Irish blend. I'm new to the channel and I get a kick out of watching people's reaction to trying new flavors
@@skyayala9306 Welcome to the channel!!! My reactions may be a bit underwhelming. People say I dont usually have much of a reaction, LOL! I actually have almost all the Java Blends in my house now and hoping to do a full line review in the next few weeks.
Out of the drinks. I think monsters have the hardest crash.
The ones with sugar, yes. The Ultras dont have much, if any, since its usually the sugar that causes crash. A small percentage of people get crash from caffeine, but in most cases sugar is the culprit.
Good analogy with Budweiser. Appreciate your work!
Thanks! I mean, it makes sense to me, but I dont understand why nobody else hasnt said it. Maybe I should become an energy drink lawyer.... one of the good ones though, not the suing ones. "Your Honor! Would we not sue budweiser for the poor decisions of others? Why in fact would we then sue Monster?"
CASE DISMISSED!
Another victory for CaffeineMan, Lawyer by day, CaffeineAddict by night (and day)
Monster is definitely one of the best energy drink companies, plus they sponsor my favorite driver Vaughn Gittin JR. And they make some pretty good drinks
They've been coming out with some really good ones lately!
I always have a soft spot for both Rockstar and Monster regardless that people throw energy drinks under the bus.
I think they're become a little bit more acceptable over the past few years but theres still a long way to go.
@@CaffeineMan1 yeah I agree they do got a long way to go. As of lately I've been drinking Celsius (since my job sells them. I work at a hospital) Reign Storm and C4. Rockstar or Monster I'll have once in a while
I drank nothing but monster for years mainly because of the amount you get for the price but I recently switched to Red Bull and I don’t even wanna go back. I’ve had every flavor of just about Every energy drink common in most stores and honestly I don’t like them. Those bangs and other shit taste good but I’m drinking these in the morning mostly so why would I wanna drink candy water lol.
Candy in the morning! 😂 yeah I know what you mean. Plus 300mgs of caffeine as a “regular” drink is a bit too much.
I’ve never had a monster before because I’m scared what it will do to my heart so what should I do
Drink it, you’ll be fine.
Shotgun 4 of them
Most recently monster is trying to sue the Toronto raptors over their logo. Crazy to me.
I heard about that one as well. Its the ones you dont hear about that are sad. Poor smaller companies. But yeah, they'll sue anyone. Big companies, small companies, sports teams.... I mean, I bet they have an entire 10 story building dedicated just to suing people.
I hate Monster... I’m a Redbull person, the taste to me is way better, and I feel more energized with Redbull, not just an increased heart rate
Im with you there. Red Bull until the day I die.
It's not monsters fault that people od on it, don't be stupid, be smart, all energy drinks are "bad" if you drink enough. I've been drinking monster for a while but I tried a bang and it was good ngl but i had chest pains that night so it scared me so I stick with monster, I mainly drink the mango juice, the white monster( don't know the name) and any of the coffees.
Wait so monster is wrong for 'copying' rockstar but then they can't sue other companies that copy them?
Oh, no, they definitely are not wrong for copying Rockstar. When it comes down to it, everyone copies from everyone. Whatever the next trend is, whether it's a movie genre, books, music style, energy drinks, following trends (copying) is extremely common.
My problem is when they try to sue the mom and pop 'Monstrous Lawn and Gardening Company" because they think they own the word "Monster" and every formation of the word Monster. Problem is the smaller companies can't afford all of the litigation and countersuits versus the 12 lawyers Monster regularly has on retainer. Luckily enough, over the past couple of years, their lawyers have been tied up with Bang lawyers as they constantly throw lawsuits back and forth at each other. Now, when it comes to THOSE two companies, you see see all the copying and lawsuits! 😂😂😂
Thanks for watching! 👍
The thing is that Monster is literally Monster.
RRROOOAARRRRR!!!!! 😂
Yay!!! Another video!!!! Great video too, you made alot of valid points!
YAY!!!
Hopefully Yay!
So many Monster lovers out there, I wasnt expected so many Yay's
😂
Ps u can trade in monster tabs for hats and hoodie and other Merchandise
Have you done a review on the Stacker 2 energy drinks?
no, no reviews on that yet....and actually, no requests for that yet, so I will add it to my list!!! Thanks!
If you hate monster stop drinking monster and throw out those cans I love bang and my favorite rockstar flavor is cotton candy :)
I dont drink it because I want too. I drink it for the reviews for you guys! Cotton Candy. Yum!
Red Bull coconut berry. What r ur thoughts on Red Bull today
I love Red Bull. Ive always been a fan of Red Bull and Ive reviewed a majority of them. I did the Peach and Pear when they released it. Did the Winter Red Plum. Unfortunately, did the Summer Breeze. And early on in my channel I did all the flavors they had released at the time. So, yeah, feel free to browse around through my channel and you'll get a good idea of how I feel about Red Bull. #coconutRedBullRules
I stay away from energy drinks since it is loaded with sugar and caffeine. The excess sugar will also result in a sugar crash which is not fun at all. A nice cup of coffee is all that i need to get an energy boost.
There are actually more energy drinks onthe market now that are sugar-free than there are sugared one. A lot of companies are realizing a lot of people don't like sugar. The preworkout community has had a big push in the energy drink industry in pushing for sugar-free and adding healthy ingredients. A lot of great healthy sugar free energy drinks out there now...
...but I can understand if you just use coffee. Plenty of people do!!!
@@CaffeineMan1 exactly! ur right about the whole stigma. Sure they aren't the healthiest things in the world, but when you look at all these sodas, and super sugary fruit juices, some of these 0 sugar and 5 cal energy drinks are lokwey better for you. They even have some good vitamins and some even help metabolism (celsius) and that drunk driver analogy was perfect. I don't care for monster cus of the sugar content, too many options and confusing lines, and just a can size that is very unconventional. Even tho they taste good. So im right there w you.
Bravo. Thanks for the honest take
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
Thanks for your opinion on this. I wasn’t ever a huge monster fan either. I mean, their ultras aren’t terrible but some other products are not of my forté. But thanks for the video Man!
YEah, I felt it was time to get it out the way so people wouldnt keep asking me what I was alluding too or asking why I said what I said. So, now its out there. Glad you liked the video! Thanks!
I dropped monster ever since I found bang. Ima bangaholic.
Nice! Thats what I like to hear!
Bangaholic.... so many jokes. So little time. 😂
I like monster but I’ll like I’m not offended why would I be
Behind you there is a «Lamborghini» energy drink. Do they still sell those?😯 I remember for 7-8 years back they had it in norway.. but it was just gone
Im uncertain if they still sell them. I got that over a year and a half ago from an energy box subscription company that went out of business. They had a tendency to put in unique drinks you couldnt normally get.
Monster is better than bang and all them bang tastes like those chalky candies you ate as a kid idk monster just has that taste i love
Theres definitely an ingredient in Bang that some people pick up on as being chalky. Not a lot of people but a small percentage of the population. Im in a small percentage that can't have stevia, so all our taste buds are little different. Monster IS the 2nd largest Energy drink company in the world, so I can understand why you like it!
I like how they named the company after a Skillet song XD.
You’re joking right?
Bruh I use to drink monster everyday in 8th grade
At 160mgs its not overly excessive for your age at the time. Hopefully you've upgraded to bigger and better things 😂
CaffeineMan, when will you review the wonderful NOS line! Very underrated in my book, Love the Nos sonic sour!
Well....my request list is fairly long and I can only review one drink a week due to my busy schedule...so its tough getting to requests right away. THAT being said, Nos has been requested for a while and it is moving right up on the list, so I can confidently say before the end of summer.
What, whens the end of summer?
Ok, ok, before the end of summer.
👍
Monster energy is the only drink that to me makes the best sugar free lol they also have so many great flavors
Ive definitely found several Ultras that Ive liked. If you didnt see it, I did a ranking video of all the Ultras.

34 minutes is too long I agree, yay bonus video day after my birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! (belated).
Hope you found some Bang Birthday Cake for it!
i love monster but i totally agree with all of this guys arguments
Thanks! I appreciate that. Some people try to point out that disliking them because other people made stupid mistakes isn't a solid arguement, but I let them know that i agree with them and mention it in the video as well. Luckliy enough, they spend most of their time fighting lawsuits with Bang so they dont have time to pick on smaller businesses anymore.
I really like the Monster Rehab tea lemonade (this one is pretty intense in flavor, almost like Nestea, but get a big 32 oz cup and throw one in with a ton of ice, water, and a fresh lemon wedge or even half a seedless lemon LOL, and it's GREAT)... As for the white dragon, I immediately noticed the taste of mangosteen - which was a pleasant surprise - but I have to be in the mood for it.
But as for new[er than this video] flavors, Monster has given me LIFE, with the best energy drink I've ever had: the Rehab Strawberry Lemonade. This drink is dank and pretty damn flawless, for an energy drink with only 3 grams of sugar per can. It tastes exactly like the strawberry lemonade at Del Taco. My friend and I blend these with ice at work to make a killer slush. And the Gold (pineapple) is pretty dang good, too: I'm just not crazy about the carbonation level. Otherwise, I don't really drink sugar-filled energy drinks, so Monster isn't my thing. I can drink the zero sugar blue and the orange, from time to time... But that strawberry lemonade is DANK and still relatively hard to find, sadly!
Yeah, the strawberry lemonade is still fairly new so it hasnt even reached all the stores yet, which is crazy. And although this video was about how much I dislike Monster, I have been finding more stuff that I like.
I'm quite the opposite Monster one of my fav, but my most fav is MTN dew I got a major sweet tooth!
Oh yeah, Monster is the rated the 2nd ranked energy drink company...its not because they dont have good products. I just prefer different ones. Sweet tooth aye? Yeah, Mountain Dew will d that too you, but as you get older, just keep an eye on that sugar intake. Heck, take a look at it now. The research online is eye opening. American heart association recommends no more than 35grams a day, yet the average american has more than 75grams a day. And thats just the average american.
Valid points i cannot argue against that, I dont drink that much energy drink but i got a couple can for my finals, and I guess I still have kid taste
Glad you enjoyed the video!
respect the difference of opinion, and strongly agree about the undeserved bad reputation energy drinks receive due to unwise consumption on the part of some individuals. energy drinks aren't dangerous if you use them responsibly!
that being said, my go-to energy drink is monstery zero ultra in the white can. i really love it, honestly
Glad you liked the video! Yeah, that Monster White is a favorite of many. Im more of a fruity guy so I was a fan of their Peachy Keen and Mango Fiesta.
Hi,
How about the java product line of monster? Already reviewed?
Not reviewed yet, but requested several times so it’s on the list!
I concur. I don't like any of the Monster flavors. The only exceptions are that I like a couple of Reign flavors. And their product design and marketing sucks.
Thats ok, you can be in denial, like me. Reign is its own company. It doesnt say ANYTHING , at all, anywhere on the can about being a Monster product. So, I love Reign....
(SHHhhhhh....I know its owned by Monster...shhhhh).
Hey, how many cans is too much to consumes in a day? On an average?
You can't really go by cans, as all of the cans have different caffeine amounts. According to the Mayo Clinic and many other medical websites, halthy adults over 18 years old should not consume any more than 400mgs per day.
If you are interested in learning more about energy drinks, I did a 3 part series on "Are Energy Drink Bad for You?"

Good video. 👍😊
Thanks! Appreciate it!
I like Monster because of the designs and the size. I love enjoy a half liter can instead of the 250ml of Redbull (and here in italy there aren't Rockstars or other half liter energy cans). But I hate that they use to sell a lot of different designs cans with the same flavour, saying that they are all different each other...
Hopefully you'll have some additional flavors soon too. Monster is supposed to be expanding their international energy drink lines this year as well.
Oh thank you I didn't know that, I can't wait!!
I adore ultra monster... never been near the normal ones far too much sugar for me 😬😬I just find red bull far too strong
Definitely a lot of sugars in there. Even Red Bull, now, doesn’t have a lot of sugar free options.
Outside of the monster zeros not a fan of monster energy drinks.
Honestly, original monster is my favorite energy drink as far as flavor goes. Lol. Ive tried hundreds of different energy drinks.
Oh mannnn....so, so, so, sweet.... so much sugar!!!
😂
But they are the 2nd ranked energy drink company out there so people gotta love it!
@@CaffeineMan1 lmao redbull even admit monster is better
Monster and Red Bull are my main drivers for my work mornings, and I for sure respect your opinion to the fullest. The way you are with monster is how I am with chick-fli-a and how I don’t agree with some of their behind the scene decisions and I haven’t been there in months. Like you said, everyone has their preferences.
Also I’ve been there since day one at around 100 subscribers 👊🏻 it’s cool you to see you get this far, keep it up
Awesome! Thanks for finding me when I started and staying for so long! I can't believe its been almost 10 months! As for companies and their policies, Im sure if you dig deep enough into any company youll find stuff you dont like. So, why focus on that and just enjoy the product....if its good.
Don't be a hater until you try monster ultra paradise
Feel free to check out my CZcams channel for all my videos. Already did a review on Paradise. 😂😂😂
My favourite energy drink from monster is mango loco, that’s my drink. A couple a week is my limit.
If I drank sugary energy drinks, that one would be one of my top choices! Great drink!
Dude pls try ninja melk energy drink
I don't care much for regular monster's flavor. However, I do like the orange Sunrise and the Rehab teas. Rehab tea actually helps me when I have a medium hangover from alcoholic drinks.
I like some of the newer rehab teas and need to review more of them. The antioxidants probably help with the hangover.
@@CaffeineMan1 oh yeah antioxidants are helpful for sure
gross orange sunrise is just gross, the rehab tea is good however.
Only reason I drink monster is because they stopped bringing sugar free energy drinks to my country . It's the only sugar free I can get anywhere here. I used to stick to red bull.
What?!?! Why in the world would they STOP bringing sugar free energy drinks to your country? Sugar is one of the worst ingredients in energy drinks, so most countries are happy to offer sugar free ones. Im sorry to hear that!
@@CaffeineMan1 well the to mayor importers are monster and red bull. Red bull stopped bringing sugar free red bull. PepsiCo only sticks to normal sobe adrenaline rush and Amp. You can get xtend or c4, but I'm not willing to cough out 8 dollars a can. Side note the sugar free market is huge here. Sometimes the whole city (pollution of ~2 million) runs out of diet coke and Pepsi. Have no idea why they don't do a market study.
