Monster Energy - Nitrous Anti-Gravity Review:
In the past I had shied away from the more Mainstream Energy Drinks as I felt they received enough coverage as is. But with an every expanding (and improving?) lineup I made a promise to start reviewing and providing more coverage of these Mainstream Drinks in the future. So today is the day as I work on expanding my reviews of Monster Energy Drinks. And to start I will pick Monster Anti-Gravity from their Nitrous lineup which also has Super Dry and Killer B. So let's see how the Monster Anti-Gravity Energy Drink performs in the taste and kick test.

Monster Energy - Nitrous Anti-Gravity Review: Taste
To be honest it has been quite some time since I reviewed anything from Monster. It's not for the lack of product, as they have a ton to choose from, it's more along the lines of me being swamped with review requests from start-ups and other small time drinks. Regardless, in the past I was not the most impressed with the taste of these drinks. However, starting with new flavors (now several years old) like Khaos and M-80, I started to appreciate Monster a little more. And with the new Anti-Gravity Monster Energy Drink, I think they have improved even more. Anti-Gravity is part of Monster's Nitrous lineup... all of which include a combination of Nitrous Oxide and Carbon Dioxide and come in Monster's new battery type can's. So what does Anti-Gravity with Nitrous and Carbon Dioxide taste like? Well the flavor itself is kind of fruity and tropical, which IMHO is the best so far I have tasted from Monster. The combination of Nitrous and Carbon Dioxide seem to give off a highly carbonated vibe, but without the effects of normal highly carbonated drinks (and by this I mean bloated and burping all the time). So to sum up the taste is very well received, especially as it seems to have any medicinal aftertaste at all, which to me is huge. Kudos to Monster on this one! Taste Rating - 9.4
Monster Energy Anti-Gravity Review: Kick
So sure this is the highest taste review any Monster Drinks have received from me in the past, but how will this new Anti-Gravity perform in the most important category (kick)? Will the Nitrous lineup prove more powerful than the original lineup even though it is only 12 ounces vs the normal 16 ounces??? Well the total energy blend is 5000 milligrams which is the same as a normal 16 ounce Monster Energy (2500 milligrams per serving). But remember, Anti-Gravity only comes in a 12 ounce can... so in essence you are getting a bunch more energy ingredients per ounce in the Anti-Gravity compared to the original lineups... You get roughly 312.5 milligrams of energy blend per ounce in a normal 16 ounce Monster. In the new Anti-Gravity Nitrous lineup you get roughly 417 milligrams of energy blend per ounce. That's nothing to be shy of and IMHO is a nice increase, which I definitely felt. Kick Rating - 8.9
Monster Energy - Nitrous Anti-Gravity Review: Final Judgment
Well Anti-Gravity, my first review from Monster's Nitrous lineup was more than positive and is definitely my most favorable review yet pertaining to Monster. Not only was the taste delicious, but the energy blend was increased (per ounce) making the kick that much better. So if you have yet to try one of Monster's New Nitrous drinks, I suggest you give them a try. They turned this cynic into a believer... Final Judgment - 9.3

This is VERY GOOD for such a small can. Thank you for the review. You are also so right about the 5 Hour Energy EXTRA STRENGTH.
Can you review Viso? It is made here in Portland, OR and it is organic. The Strawberry - Key Lime is excellent. While not caffinated, it provides great focus.
Our local mini-mart no longer carries Wired because of the ultra high caffeine, but I thought the X 294 was great. The local distributor doesn't have good Wired-speak, as his eyes glaze over at the mention of X 505, but it is available on the internet directly.
Keep up the great service with honest reviews.
July 2010 - Another flavor in the Nitrous line-up that hasn't been reviewed is Killer-B. Same 12oz can, same 5000mg energy blend. However, the B vitamins loaded into this drink are incredibly high ie: B2-6.5mg, B3-40mg, B5-150mg, B6-25mg, B12-90mcg. Also added in are Bee Pollen, Bee Royal Jelly and honey. Might just as well throw the whole bee in. Flavors not bad either and I'm not a Monster fan, so that's saying alot.
I REALLY enjoy the Monster Nitrous drinks (not a fan of Killer B flavor though) but I haven't been able to find it anywhere for less than $3 a can. That being said, it's the best tasting energy drink on the market, IMO and the 12 oz. is just right for me.
Monster "Killer-B" at 99 cents store, (obviously at 99 cents)
Just bought a case, since a wholesaler may buy the lot.
