The skeleton of the fish really makes me want to drink this. I don't know why. I don't know what the things are that are protruding from its body. Maybe they're supposed to be legs and this is a piranha in the middle of evolving into a stubby legged fish with a stick coming out of its head. I think the creepy thing is that the face of the piranha is surprisingly human-like. The nose and mouth are very distinguishable, but piranhas have a ridiculous under bite. I really like the font that the word Piranha was written in, but the letter A circled in the old middle school 'anarchy' fashion seems a little out of place. The fact that there's already the skeleton of this freaky fish with human face, and sticks coming out of its body, in hot pink shows that there already is anarchy.

Active Ingredients *Per can, not per serving:
Piranha is made by EAS which also makes other energy and dietary supplements. They say "bite back with a high-intensity taurine energy blend." They're looking to give you a "MAXIMUM ENERGY BURST" with "ENERGY x 2" This is a very energetic looking can. Contains caffeine, taurine, guarana seeds, and green tea leaf extract.

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 been a big fan of the watermelon kiwi flavor combination, and have never been let down. I was totally happy with Piranha as a flavored beverage. It had a great taste, not too carbonated, and not too syrupy. However, I don't think this is an energy drink. While it had some caffeine in it and I didn't fall asleep, which is better than some others, the energy experienced was low. The company put so much time and effort into the can, and it looks so energizing, what a let down. It even says on the side of the can, "one serving contains about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee". That's great and all. But why would anyone want that? Just go get the coffee. I'm looking for high energy here!

Jason's Review:
The fish being hot pink helped with my masculinity. I seriously question the credibility of the 130 calories per serving in this drink. If you poured this drink into a candy mold, and left it for like 2 days, you'd have a kiwi strawberry jolly rancher. I tasted another fruit flavor too, but I don't know where they're getting watermelon, it certainly didn't happen for me.

I felt about as energized as drinking a mountain dew, and for $1.49, that's not a fantastic value.
