DynaPep still comes in the blister packs, like Original DynaPep, but it's re-branded with a new logo, new cylindrical ampule, instead of the old rectangular one. The flames are gone, and replaced with a far more fashionable swooshy design, in this case, in varying shades of red. The side texts (in white) now read, "Increased Focus, Lasts Longer, No Carbs, No Sugar, No Crash". The top left (in yellow), reads, "Energia", which is like energy for people from Mexico, South America, and parts of southern Europe. It goes on (in white) to read, "El Primer Micro-Shot". The top right (in yellow), "1" and (in white) "Micro Shot". In the very center, "New Cinnamon Flavor", with an image of some cinnamon sticks in the background.
The back is white and fairly verbose, "Directions: Take 1 DynaPep super concentrated Micro-Shot directly or add to water or beverage. Do not take on an empty stomach", (I bolded this, it's not bolded on the package, but you should certainly heed this warning), "or exceed 2 Micro-Shots in one day. Warning: Not recommended for children. Do not take if pregnant or breast feeding. Do not take with prescription or over the counter drugs containing ephedrine or pseudo-ephedrine derivatives. If you have sensitivity to caffeine, or a history of medical conditions including high or low blood pressure, diabetes, or heart related conditions, please consult a physician."

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
DynaPep Energy Micro-Shot Cinammon contains a single 4ml (0.13 fl.oz.) serving, which contains mg/% USRDA (whichever is available, or both, if listed) : Calories 2, Fat 1g/2%, Carbohydrates 0 and a Proprietary Blend 156.5mg (Caffeine Anhydrous 80mg, Vitamin B12 16666% and undisclosed amounts of 2-Amino 4-Methyl Hexane HCL, Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Chromium Polynicotinate)

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
What has not changed about DynaPep is that after you take it, you think those "World's Strongest Man" events don't look that challenging. For the next several hours, I don't see any structure I don't think, "I could probably headbutt my way through that". One positive, I also didn't seem to have as hard a time focusing as with the original formula. I don't know if that's a change, or just that I ate more food when I took it this time. I think the more empty your stomach is, the more prone you are to getting that "medicine head" feeling.

What has changed, and much for the better, is the flavor. Gone is the drain cleaner aftertaste. While you may not still find the aftertaste pleasant, I can say that MENTHO-LYPTUS-LIKE, is much more savory than "drain cleaner". The initial taste use somewhat mediciny, but, since it's probably about 1/3 of an adult dose of cough medicine, there's not a lot to like or dislike about it. I think the aftertaste is a far more legitimate consideration, and it's much improved.
$2.50 is pretty pricey for any energy product, but for something that makes me want to rip my shirt off like "Hollywood"/"Hulk" Hogan, I can't complain. Running a marathon? Moving into a new house? Want better performance at the gym? I guess the value hinges on how much you're willing to spend to physically perform optimally.

Jason's Review:

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a boxer, to hear the roar of the crowd, like when Iron Mike Tyson knocked out Michael Spinks to unify all 4 heavyweight titles in 1988.

At my age, I won't likely be "dancing under the lights", and if I do, I'll likely be booed and pelted with feces. Thankfully, with DynaPep, I can eat a healthy breakfast, knock back a 4ml micro-shot and feel like a 22-year-old Mike Tyson, getting off his stool to begin a round, instead of coming off stage covered in it.

The new, reformulated cinnamon flavor DynaPep is still very pungently flavored, but the initial taste is more tart, and the aftertaste is more tingly like a cough drop. Both are marked improvements.

I took a DynaPep about 10AM, with increased focus and feeling like "The baddest man on the planet", I attacked the yard work like a middle-aged man covered in clown makeup attacking a 92 lb. Vietnamese woman. Around 4PM, I started losing focus and the affects were wearing off. I'd hardly eaten since breakfast, which I've found can be a grave mistake with DynaPep. The package even states not to take it on an empty stomach.
Also, since the caffeine content in DynaPep is lower than some other drinks, it's likely these feelings were merely caffeine withdrawal (to be clear, this 4ml shot has as much caffeine as a Red Bull, but I'm known to consume 250mg+ at a time).The rest of the time release formula had been and was continuing to do its job.

I don't believe the second generation of DynaPep is yet on the market. If they are priced like the 1st gen, these will likely be available at GNC for about $2.50/each. If you believe the difference between feeling like a primely-conditioned heavyweight boxing champion and a poo-covered washed up tool of the porn industry is worth $2.50, I recommend you buy some.

Whynatte comes in a black and bronze can. The top of the can reads "VITAMINS - PREMIUM COFFEE - REFRESHMENT". The front of the can reads "whynatte Latte - Coffee and Energy" with a graphical splash of coffee. The side of the can has the following text; "Great alone, great mixed, serve chilled and refrigerate after opening. The Whynatte phenomenon was born from three friends, with nothing but a latte and a dream. People around the world have taken the Whynatte and made it their own, in the process building an inclusive and thriving community to embrace it. Welcome to the Whynatte family; life just got a latte better". Gotta love those latte puns!

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Each can of Whynatte contains one 8 oz serving and the following mg/% USRDA per serving: Calories 100, Total Fat 3.5g/5%, Saturated Fat 2g/10%, Cholesterol 10mg/ 3%, Sodium 200mg/8%, Total Carbohydrate 15g/5%, Dietary Fiber 1g/4%, Sugar 9g, Protein 4g, Vitamin A 2%, Calcium 15%, Phosphorous 14%, Riboflavin 100%, Niacin 100%, Vitamin B6 100%, Vitamin B12 100%.

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
Do you enjoy coffee flavored beverages? I know I do and why not? Or rather Whynatte? As a coffee drink, Whynatte is comparable to Java Monster. The biggest difference is that Whynatte has a much bolder coffee taste than Java Monster. If you're a fan for strong, dark coffee, you will probably find the flavor of Whynatte to be delightful.

Whynatte comes in an 8 oz can, which is too bad. After I polished off the can, I kept wishing that there was more. It saddened me to find that the can was drained and I had no more Whynatte. Herein lies my problem with these awesomely delicious coffee drinks. The lack of carbonation allows for a gulping down which carbonated drinks don't really allow for. I'm like a rabid animal when I crack the can on a non-carbonated drink. It lasts for about 30 seconds then it's gone forever.

Something else that is gone forever is the money that was in my pocket. The parallels between Whynatte and Java Monster keep presenting themselves. These two drinks also share a high price tag. Whynatte will set you back $1.89 for an 8 oz. can. This makes Java Monster look like a bargain at $2.89 for a 15 oz can. I love these drinks so much but they are so expensive that they have become more of a rare treat than a regular occurrence. A rare, 30 second treat.

Jason's Review:

Like all men in their 30s, I love the Twilight series of movies. Then, who doesn't love movies about vampire-like things, spirit wolves, and a whiny teenage girl who's mouth hangs precariously open all the time. Today we're reviewing Whynatte, a premium coffee latte beverage, which reminds me a great deal of the Twilight series.

This drink comes in a handsome can, and the flavor is a perfect combination of strength and sweetness, like Taylor Lautner. On the other hand, due primarily to a caffeine deficiency, Whynatte is a little weak and frail, like Robert Pattinson. Sure, like Pattinson, Whynatte has a lot of other "qualities", like: taurine, ginseng, guarana, l-carnitine and vitamins, but at the end of the day, no one really cares about anything other than caffeine and six-pack abs.

The 100 calories, 3.5g of fat and 4g of protein likely far exceed Kristen Stewart's daily nutritional intake, which makes me think, perhaps her mouth is constantly agape in hopes that it will be filled with one of these delicious latte beverages. I say, "Whynatte? Maybe eat a sandwich while you're at it."

Whynatte is available in the Atlanta area for as low as $1.89, a reasonable value, compared to the swill you'll get at Starbucks for about a dollar more.

Overall, on a scale of "Adventureland" to anything worth watching, Whynatte is off the scale.

Can Text:

Rockstar Cola comes in a matte-finish murdered out black can with gold, silver and white accent colors. Even the lid and pull tag are black (with the exception of the silver double "R" on the tab). Around the rim, it reads, "Caffeine, Guarana, Ginseng, B-Vitamins, Taurine", all separated by stars. The front has the Rockstar "star" in silver and gold in the bottom left corner. The gold and silver name read, "Rockstar Energy Cola", to the right of the star, "Double Size, Double Strength".

The back of the can has some unnecessary text on it that reads, "Bigger. Better. Faster. Stronger. Rockstar is the world's most powereful energy drink.", Let me interrupt and say, that's just false, "Enhanced with the potent herbal blend of Guarana, Ginkgo, Ginseng and Milk Thistle. Rockstar Energy Cola is scientifically formulated to provide an incredible energy boost for those who lead active and exhausting lifestyles - from athletes to rock stars. Enjoy this fully refreshing lightly carbonated beverage super chilled. Party like a Rockstar."

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Rockstar Energy Cola contains 2 8fl. oz. servings., and the following mg/% USRDA per serving: Calories 130, Carbohydrates 33g/11%, Sugars 33g, Vitamin B2 3.4mg/200%, Vitamin B3 20mg/100%, Vitamin B5 10mg/100%, Vitamin B6 2mg/100%, Vitamin B12 6mcg/100%, Sodium 5mg/0%, Tuarine 1g, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract 150mg, Caffeine 80mg, Guarana Seed Extract 25mg, Inositol 25mg, L-Carnitine 25mg, Panax Ginseng Root Extract 25mg, Milk Thistle Extract 25mg.

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
I don't find Rockstar Energy Cola refreshing, no matter how cold, I feel like it's thick and the flavor is overpowering. I'm ok sipping it, but it gets less enjoyable as it warms. I think the flavor is bitey, and tingles in the back of the tongue, and the aftertaste lingers. After drinking most of the can, I get a muted sickly sensation, perhaps from the 66g of sugar. I found the flavor of Rockstar almost indistinguishable from Jolt Power Cola and Red Bull Cola. Most notably, I found Red Bull more refreshing. Also noteworthy is that Red Bull is avialable in 12oz., Rockstar in 16oz. and Jolt in 24oz. So, you can choose based on your thirst and energy needs.

Across the board, we've always given Rockstar solid marks for their ability to make an invigorating beverage. Aside from Rockstar Zero Carb, which went above and beyond with 240mg of caffeine per 16oz. can (80 more than Rockstar Cola), Rockstar Energy Cola provides a comparable jolt of power to all the other Rockstar drinks.

You can likely get these somewhere for $1.99 (since all the other Rockstars are available for $1.99). We happened upon them for $2.29, which I think is unfortunate, but still not a rip-off. I'd be un-inclined to pay $2.29 for this if any of the other major labels were available for $1.99 (namely several of the Monster flavors, NOS Grape or Full Throttle.

Jason's Review:

Rockstar Cola, is relatively new to the south, but is one of the original Rockstar flavors. It used to come in a red can, which is now the home of Rockstar Juiced Pomegranate. I originally had Rockstar Energy Cola in Delaware back in 2005, along with 3 other energy drinks I've never seen in the south: Mad-Croc, Vamp NRG and Orange County Choppers High Octane Fuel. We threw the can for Rockstar Cola away when we cleaned out the car at a gas station, so we never reviewed it. I prefer the new can design, with the murdered out matte black finish.

Like all Rockstar energy drinks, I'm pleased with how Rockstar Energy Cola provides a strong and sustained energy boost.

My only real complaint with Rockstar is their "Party Like a Rockstar" slogan, which has been defined to me as "snorting lines of coke, until you're a nasal hemophiliac". Perhaps they should add, "Get tested at the clinic like a Rockstar", for after you get blitzed out of your mind and make a poor decision of taking a dip in the "communal pool".

Rockstar Cola, like most energy colas has more of a bite than a tradtional Coke or Pepsi. I bought this at a gas station, and drank it directly out of the can. Like Jolt Power Cola, you might find it more refreshing over ice. I would consider this product on par with Jolt Power Cola. Depending on your taste preference, you may find this, Jolt or Red Bull's cola offerings most appealing. Red Bull Cola, in fact, is the only American Red Bull product I would consider buying. Jolt Power Cola is difficult to find, but it's the cheapest per ounce. Rockstar Cola is the most readily available, and in 16oz. cans for $2.29.

Can Text:

The Caffeine Energy Drink can is almost all black, with caffeine scrawled down the side and a grey and a red swooshy crescent things. (If there's one thing I learned in design school, when in doubt, put some swooshy crescent things in the background). My one complaint with Caffeine is it's similarity to Cocaine Energy Drink. They use essentially the same font and can layout (the text is oriented 180 degrees from Cocaine's design). The rest of the can is pretty simple, silver, white, black and red all around. The rim reads, "Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, Vitamin B12". A first, Caffeine warns that you may experience "caffeine intoxication" if you drink too much. Like most cans/bottles these days, the ingredients/nutritional information are difficult to read.

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Caffeine Energy Drink contains 1 12oz (355ml) serving. That serving contains the following mg/% USRDA of the following: Calories 160, Carbohydrates 39g/13%, Sugar 39g, Vitamin C 60mg/100%, Niacin 6mg/30%, Vitamin B6 2mg/100%, Folic Acid 120mcg/30%, Vitamin B12 6mcg/100%, Biotin 90mcg/30%, Pantothenic Acid 3mg/30%, Sodium 40mg/2%, caffeine 140mg. This drink also contains unspecified amounts of: dextrose, D-Calcium Pantothenate, Niacinamide.

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
When I saw the sleek black can, I thought that Caffeine may have something to offer. As always, I was right. I cracked the can and took a whiff. The smell kind of reminded me of children's chewable Tylenol (which I find particularly delicious). The taste was equally pleasant with citrus flavors and a bit of grapefruit zing. The real surprise was the lack of bitter caffeine taste. With 140mg of natural caffeine, I was fully expecting to have my face turned inside out from that all too familiar caffeine bitter blast. Another favorable trait for Caffeine is the mild carbonation. Caffeine has just enough carbonation to make it tickle the taste buds, but no so much that you can't slam it down.

Some would say that the energy gained from Caffeine will make you like you're walking on sunshine. I don't disagree with this sentiment, but I find that it's more comparable witnessing the oh so vivid rays of a double rainbow. About 5 minutes after knocking back an ice cold can of Caffeine, I found myself with a slight case of the energy sweats and a slightly increased heart rate. If I enjoyed exercise and other healthy activities, I feel like Caffeine would be a great choice to stay energized. Alternatively, I could also see Caffeine being beneficial for those late night raid sessions in World of Warcraft or an evening of noob pwning in Modern Warfare.

On the double rainbow scale, I would rate Caffeine as a 1.5 rainbow. The taste is great, the energy gained is above average for a comparable energy drink, and the can design is pretty sweet. The only thing that keeps this from being a double rainbow all the way, is that Paul Vasquez frightens me and if I rate Caffeine as a double rainbow, he might appear.

Jason's Review:

Caffeine Energy Drink, thankfully, the people who formulated it wisely decided to include of great deal of caffeine in the product. It's light and refreshing, tastes almost like Sprite, maybe a little more bitter.

Caffeine shares a great deal of positive characteristics with one of my other favorite energy drinks, Bawls. For one, they don't bother with things like taurine, ginseng, ginkgo and all that other voodoo. Essentially, they put all their focus is naturally-derived caffeine. As I said earlier, it has a light and refreshing flavor.

Though it's called caffeine, they don't list the caffeine content on the can. On their website, they do disclose that each 12oz. can does contain 140mg of naturally-derived caffeine. While the caffeine content does not seem astronomical compared to some energy shots, specifically. I do feel like I've take Adderall shortly after drinking a Caffeine Energy Drink. Like I'm walking on sunshine.

I find myself staring off into nowhere, perhaps contemplating what super powers I might have. Looking at random objects and relating unrelated things, like thinking about what the video camera I'm using to record this might taste, how the color purple smells, what it would be like to live in a bee hive, why my feet and palms are so sweaty, why I've started growing ear hair...

Caffeine comes in a 12oz. can and has a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $2.29, which I think is a value.

The bottle looks a great deal like 925 Energy Power Shot. The notable differences being the text, "Player Aid" instead of "925" and "Premium Energy Shot Play At a Higher Level" instead of "Power Shot Work All Day Play All Night". The cap is orange, the majority of the bottle is black, and there's an orange band near the bottom. The back of the bottle is white with black text and orange accents. The cap reads, "Yerba Mate + Green Tea + Taurine +Caffeine".

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Player Aid Premium Energy Shot contains 1 (2oz.) serving per container. That serving contains the following mg/% USRDA of the following: Vitamin B6 10mg/833%, Niacin 30mg/250%, Vitamin B12 (actually written Viaymin B12 on the bottle) 500mcg/13883%, Folic Acid 400mcg/167%, Pantothenic Acid 4.8mg/83%. Player Aid Energy Shot also contains a proprietary blend of 2.24g including 120mg of caffeine and 2.12g of undisclosed amounts of the following: N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine, Green Tea, Yerba Mate, Ginseng, Glucuronolactone, and L-Citroline Malate.

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
It's quite possible that Player Aid has discovered that cherries are naturally bitter, somehow removed that natural bitterness and replaced it with caffeine. This still tastes pretty bitter, but for some reason, it seems natural. If you don't like tart things like cherries or lemons, you may not like Player Aid.

As every other energy shot claims to provide, when used as directed, I was energized for hours, and didn't feel like I was hit by a truck afterwards. I usually eat (in this case, breakfast) and then use the energy shot. After about 20-30 minutes, I finally overcome the nearly insatiable desire to go back to bed, and within minutes of that, I'm getting things done.

I like Player Aid, but anything over $2 is just egregiously expensive, IMHO.

Jason's Review:

Player Aid, which touts itself as a premium energy shot, which I assume they do to differentiate themselves from garbage like Stacker 2.

I'm not sure if this product name is intended to be read, "Playa" or "Player". I'm not sure it matters, as it's effectiveness is probably most aptly measured by the improvement in the playa's/player's "game". In addition, anyone jealous of these improvements is probably a "Playa/Player Hata". Either way, I wouldn't know, I haven't played organized sports since the Reagan administration, and I was unable to manage a date after 3 years in a retirement community.

Player Aid is similar in packaging and quality to 925 Energy. It has all the taste and nutritional benefits I'm looking for in an energy shot. It has a tart cherry flavor. It reminds me of the Cherry Clan candies, which had packaging that was the most racially stereotyping of all time. The only thing that could have been more offensive is if they had spelled it "Cherry Cran" and had the chinamen crashing a card into Godzirra.

In addition to being tasty, I found Player Aid to be energizing. It had unreasonable volumes of B vitamins.

The suggested retail price is $3, but you can find them online for $2.50, as long as you commit to buying a box of 12. I think it's a reasonable investment, since it's energizing and quite possibly the best tasting energy shot on the market.
