Review for NOS Sugar Free

CAFFEINE CONTENT

260 mg

EASE IN ACQUISITION—7

Average.

APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6

I’ve made note of this before in at least a couple of reviews, but now that I’m actually reviewing the beverage, I get to expound—the packaging on NOS Sugar Free isn’t all that great.  I am really not a fan of extensive exposure of aluminum when it comes to packaging on a cans—for some reason, I have a mindset that associates colorlessness on a can with flavorlessness within, and as a result, I’m always a little apprehensive when I reach for one in a cooler.  Looking at NOS Sugar Free, I couldn’t help but think that I was probably going to wind up with a watered down version of the original, with a heavy taste of artificial sweeteners.

TASTE—9

You have probably heard the phrase “can’t judge a book by its cover”, and in this case, that’s absolutely true.  I have no more qualms with this drink than I did the original, except that the you do get a bit of an artificial sweetener taste in the first few sips.  That goes away, however, and pretty soon you’re just enjoying passion-fruity goodness.

KICK (INTENSITY)—10

Most NOS drinks deliver a very curious kick—they make it so that I am extraordinarily alert, but it’s never a jittery sort of thing.  NOS Sugar Free isn’t really any exception to that—it’s about as effective as anyone could ask for, but it’s not so in-your-face intense as many similarly intense energy drinks.

KICK (DURATION)—10

No NOS drink has ever failed in this department, and you can feel pretty confident that NOS Sugar Free won’t either.  5+ hours of energy are delivered before you cross the finish line.

THE DRINK OVERALL—9.67

If you like NOS and are counting calories, I can’t think of any reason why you wouldn’t like NOS Sugar Free.  Heck—if you like NOS and aren’t counting calories, I can’t think of any reason you wouldn’t like NOS Sugar Free.  It’s an excellent all-around drink, and well worth any energy drinker’s consideration.
