Can Text:
This can is very red, and almost completely lacks text.
Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Goji juice concentrate, guarana. I found no mention of caffeine, taurine, and the usual suspects, at least on the can I bought. The following are percentage of daily values per serving: 250% vitamin C, 130% B6, 90% B12. This drink also contains 1g of protein.
Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
Seeing as how Goji berry is an ingredient in Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt Asian Experience Energy Drink, I would have guessed other energy drink producers would have avoided it like the plague. Apparently, the guys at 180 have all the decision-making acumen of Jamie-Lynn Spears. Before opening the can, I was already imagining this would taste like the underside Stephen Seagal's beer belly. As I suspected, this drink had a very herbal taste, like hippie cough medicine. It wasn't as thick and molassessy as the Stephen Seagal drink, but the herbal remedy flavor would make even Kevin Trudeau back away from the can with a revolted look on his face.
Since it was at least drinkable, I consumed 180 Red as quickly as possible. As a result, I think it seemed rather affective. I had some-get-up-and-go for a good portion of the day.
At $1.19, it's not that bad, if you were brought up in a commune, and are used to eating leaves and dirt to cure anything from bad acid trips to herpes.

5Jason's Review:
My partner-in-crime has already pointed out that this drink tastes strikingly similar to another notoriously ghastly tasting energy drink. He/she's also fairly pertinently made fun of the Spears family, and noted how they've astonishingly brought shame on their already white-trash-laden surname. By comparison, Federline is starting to look pretty good. This brings us to today's energy drink review. If Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt Asian Experience Energy Drink is the Spears family, then 180 Red with Goji is the Federlines. In this example, you can see that one only looks better when compared to the other. Sort of like a stomach virus is almost enjoyable when compared to e coli.
I was more energized by the Richard Simmons "Sweatin' to the Oldies" commercial.
The price isn't bad, if this was the original 180, but apparently Anhueser-Busch's quality control insisted that their energy drinks taste as bad as their beer.

180 Red Goji definitely doesn't taste like a monster haha, but its different and i like it better actually. (I think they should make diet) the fruityness of most energy drinks is low, and if it didn't have sugar it would be less like BAM! haha, well its pretty good:). I dont know about any herbal tastes if these people think 180 energy drink is bad try a blue demon full throttle hahahaa.

I was skeptical of 180 Red with Goji at first, since it was hidden behind the blue acai 180 energy drink. It was probably because it was the only one, and the top was covered in a thick layer of dust. The price won me over, it was only $0.99. The flavor was a lot like grapefruit juice, which I thought was good. It however was not very energizing.

I absolutely LOVE 180 Red with Goji. I think the reason it is rated so badly is because people see the title "energy drink" and expect it to taste like monster or any other popular energy drink. It tastes really fruity and different, If you are tired of the energy drinks that all taste the same like I am, go out and try this.

I LOVE the 180 red. I think it tastes similar to grapefruit juice. It doesn't have any type of "herbal" taste, that I could detect, and I am really picky about energy drinks. I suffer from narcolepsy, and I get the most energy from 180 Red, as compared to other energy drinks. It's a pretty good value, when compared to other drinks, though I think all of them are overpriced.
