    Have you ever taken such a big shit that you had to remove your pants and underwear so you could open your legs wide enough to shit it all out faster? I imagine drinking one of these feels something like that.

      The ones that are sugar free specify that in big letters, so yeha it’s probably the standard 9-12% sugar that most energy drinks are

      That Nitro Monster uses nitrogen gas instead of carbon dioxide for the fizzies, and it’s rather dense.

      Why they call it ‘super dry’, I don’t quite know, but if you ever tried one, it sorta makes sense.

      • In alcoholic drinks, it refers to a low sugar content. I figured even if this was not in America, it probably would still say “low sugar” or “sugar free” like it does here, but the other reply makes me think that isn’t that case, and this DOES refer to it having a low sugar content in other parts of the world.

          Wait is dry actually related to sugar content? I mean it makes obvious sense now that you said it but I’m so used to using dry/sweet for wine based on the taste and never really made that connection that it was sweeter because it actually had more sugar, I guess I thought it was pixie dust making it sweeter.

            Dry is used both for the sugar content and the mouth feel from tannins in wine, but yeah, it’s usually referring to the residual grape sugars left after fermentation. Dry = low sugar,

    Just guessing, but looks like it tastes like GUINESS -> briefly ass -> MONSTER WRECKING MY BUZZ.

    stuff like this is done in Czechia, which is the country with by far the most consumption of beer per capita.

    Diesel is Coke and Beer.

    then there is Sprite and Beer.

    I am pretty sure Fanta and Beer is a thing too.

    plus there are various syrups that can be added to beer, Cherry, Strawberry and Elderberry are the most popular of those

      Beer and Sprite is called Radler in Germany, meaning cyclist because it’s often drunken during weekend cycling tours when you don’t want a full beer

        That just sounds like Snakebite and Black, a drink most places in the UK won’t serve.

        Mostly because cleaning bright purple vomit out of your pub carpet is a fucking nightmare.

            Because we’re civilised.

            I mean, not civilised enough to avoid attempting to drink a dozen snakebite and blacks and then launching it The Exorcist style all over the floor, but just civilised enough to be able to go to the hospital for free when the three lads who’ve stuffed their noses with magic dickhead powder decided you were looking at them funny.

    Ever tried shandy? It’s basically that, but Guinness.

    The sweetness of the Monster is countered by the stoutness of…the stout, basically making a shandy.

      Wash your mouth out with radioactive waste you dirty Philistine.

      Shandy is fine on a hot summer day if you have to drive. Pleasant, even.

      That drink is the greatest assault on the Irish nation since bloody Sunday.
