Can Text:

They are clear that it's "From Mountain Dew", assuming that "Mountain Dew" is some remote island where all the xtreme sports stars are enslaved to make sodas. The can features a sweet light to dark green vertical fade...which is so xtreme. They also clarify that this product is not for children...and Mountain Dew is?

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Maltodextrin, Ginseng, Taurine, B Vitamins, Guarana, and Caffeine. I would also like to add sugar, quite a lot of it, as an active ingredient.

Angie's Review: Reviews posted after May 2007 are written by a guest reviewer referred to from this point forward as "The Stig".
I've always thought of this as the mini wannaba Monster. I enjoy the flavor, but you really have to get it when it's nice and cold because it gets thick fast. The energy level is decent, but it could be better. I think you get a bit of a kick in the beginning, but it doesn't have much going for it besides a bunch of sugar.

Jason's Review:
This soda has always been entirely too syrupy for me. It's like drinking tree sap. The taste is pretty good otherwise, liken to condensed Mountain Dew. I'd imagine it would be good served over pancakes, but it's not an enjoyable beverage for me. I also get very little out of it in the way of energy. I feel like the energy is mostly from the sugar, though it does host an impressive list of "energizing" ingredients in undisclosed amounts.

On a closing note, the logo and can are both pretty cool. I do feel "xtreme" when drinking it.

I agree this is a bogus rating. I don't think amp really gives that much energy, but it's taste is second to none. I drink it just for the taste, not the energy.

Andy on 2008-04-07 21:29:44 said:
AMP is in my opinion by far the best tasting drink out there. The first time I was a little hesitant. But it really is good. The energy is minimal for some people. Yet my friend gets hyper with half a can. Great drink.

PIRO on 2008-04-10 17:19:07 said:
AMP is the best drink out there, no doubt.
