Taste: 6. I’d like to hear your broken logic.Īroma: 8.0/10 (very sweet, gets your mouth watering) If it’s your drink of choice, rant about it in the comments. It’s salty and bitter, hurts your teeth, burns your throat, has a poor kick, and costs way more than it should. Why? I don’t understand and I probably never will. Amp is an average drink that does nothing to deserve the high rate it charges other than sporting the Mountain Dew logo.Īmp is a big-name drink consumed by a lot of people. And while I did allow the higher price tags of drinks like Cocaine to pass, they are well worth the admission cost. Well above the industry standard price tag of $1.99. A standard 2 serving, 16 fl oz can runs for around $2.49. On the value front, Amp does nothing but lose points. It’s really disappointing since it came from the makers of Mountain Dew, which was the original caffeine powerhouse way back in the day before energy drinks became mainstream. It’ll likely leave you shaky and jittery instead of ready, alert, and focused. Which isn’t even really worth it because…Īmp has, like a few other big-name drinks, a rather poor kick. It does have a pleasantly citric aftertaste, which gives it extra points which are immediately taken away by the medicinal burn you’ll experience if you try to chug a can down for some quick energy. And while it is by no means a bad tasting drink, it’s very salty which could possibly be the reason why Amp tends to hurt your teeth. Don’t get me wrong, I pick up a can of Amp every once in a while if it’s on sale 2/3 or BOGO to save money. If your mouth waters at the scent of something, it must taste absolutely delicious, right? It also smells extremely sweet, which helps getting that saliva in your mouth flowing around. It’s slightly reminiscent of Mountain Dew, but not much. I’m not sure why they keep doing it, but they fall for it time after time.Īmp has a very citric scent. People see the words Mountain and Dew, realize they love Mountain Dew, then pick a can of this up. Now the only reason the Mountain Dew logo is on the can is for brand recognition. Or that’s what it was originally meant to be, at least. CARBONATED WATER HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP CITRIC ACID CONCENTRATED ORANGE JUICE NATURAL FLAVOR GUARANA SEED EXTRACT SODIUM BENZOATE (PRESERVES FRESHNESS). Oh well, get used to it.Īnyway, Amp is basically Mountain Dew on crack. You may have noticed I tend to have this problem with reviewing things out of order as I did with the Speedway branded Shockwave drinks. A while back I posted a review of Amp Revive, a decent orange flavored spin-off of the original. 7-eleven is another great choice for buying AMP Energy Drink.
