NOS Energy Drink
NOS Energy Drink
Cost: $2.00 16 oz
Active ingredients: Caffeine,B6,B12
Rating: 6 out of 10
So another drink that tries a different flavor approach than redbull. I like that it tries something different, to bad that is about all I like. It was a lemon lime citrus like flavor. It sounds good, but to bad it has that bad after taste like many of the Sobe drinks. Which I have referred to many times as musky or sweaty armpits. Some people don't notice this taste or they like it, so dont just take my word about how bad it tastes if you like Sobe and stuff you might like it. I just don't like that aftertaste... besides that it isn't over the top sweet like others which is nice. It packs a pretty nice punch with a kick that kept me going for awhile, If you like Sobe energy drinks give it a shot, if not avoid it all.

Posted by Dan at July 12, 2005 09:58 PMJust wanted to say that I am a big fan of your energy drink reviews. Also, a coworker and I get energy drinks at the 7-11 right up the street here in Severn, MD, and we had this one called Kronik that was quite possibly the worst tasting ED we've ever had. The website: Kronik Energy
Also, Jolt has one that I didn't see a review for yet: Jolt Energy
So check 'em out. Thanks again.
Posted by: Odhinn at July 13, 2005 09:18 AMCAN'T FIND KRONICK ANYWHERE IN YUMA,AZ...I FOUND IT BEFORE ONLY AT THE CHEVRON GAS STATIONS HERE IN YUMA...BUT NOW THEY SAY IT MIGHT BECOME DISCONTINUED????? NOOOOO...PLEASE NO! I AM A FAT GIRL AND THE LOW-CARB KRONICK GAVE ME THE KICK THAT I NEEDED...I'M SURE THAT I'M NOT ALONE ON THIS. SO IF YOU DO READ YOUR E-MAIL PLEASE SEND THE LOW-CARB BACK TO THE SHELVES HERE IN YUMA, AZ. FAITHFUL CUSTOMER TO THE KRONICK
Posted by: JOY at August 6, 2005 02:53 PM I tried this drink today and I gotta say man was it nasty !!! your better of with a go fast or a monster dont buy this drink !!
might as well just drink some liquid gak
Posted by: lumicrew at August 19, 2005 12:41 PM I rather have some homemade sprite than to drink this crappy drink .
I recently tried NOS and i love it! it tastes like full throttle but doesnt cost as much. its very good. does anyone know what nos means in spanish! it means we!
Posted by: sarah at October 5, 2005 12:15 PMi just about peed myself when i saw this on the counter at walgreens. it's bad enough NOS (nitrious oxide systems) sells octane booster and is shamlessly promoted in the fast and furious movies, but now an energy drink, whats next hair gel? anyways i had to try it. not very good. but funny as hell. open up a can at a car show or around your car friends its a great laugh. almost as much fun as drinking jones soda's old energy drink, whooopass!
Posted by: johnnysuede23 at October 14, 2005 09:53 AMTo answer Sarah's post, the term 'NOS' does mean 'we' in Spanish, but that isn't the refrence intended here. 'NOS' is a brand of Nitrous Oxide, which is made to cool a car's engine, increase horsepower, and improve preformence for a temporary period of time. This translates into the energy drink, stemmed from the same logo. Sorry to disappoint Sarah, but this is really a crosover of a logo, and has nothing to do with Spanish. Lo siento. :)
Posted by: Eagle at October 28, 2005 12:08 AMDude everyone above said that this drink sucked..well im a ahuge fan of nos along with alotta other drinks
It has a huge punch and stays with u for a lil bit.It got me shakinging in the car while i was drinking it!!! And trust me i have drank a sht load of different energy drinks and this one by far kicks some major as!!!!
does anybody know where to buy the drink I can't seem to find it anywhere! please help!!! thanks a lot
Posted by: matt at November 11, 2005 02:47 PMWhere can i buy NOS...as good a Full Thottle only with a different twist.
Posted by: Rob at December 6, 2005 03:05 PMNos is the best out of all the other bullshit energy drink out. Only if I could find it. Anyone have a clue Fresno CA.
Posted by: Stella at January 19, 2006 06:47 PMNOS kicks serious ass, it blows all others away for the price, gas stations that are national seem to be the best place to find them. Sunoco does carry it in its co-ops, franchises obviously have their own choice. In other words if it is Indian, or Paki owned it is possible you will not find it, but you may ask them to order it most will oblige if you are a regular. Throttle tastes like crap by the way. If you like a grapefruit taste go with NOS baby.
Posted by: slim at February 6, 2006 12:49 AMJust wondering....what color is NOS...when i first found out about NOS energy drink i was on Holleys street racing carburator website....thats kinda wierd...a Nitrous oxide system, owned by Holley performance...is putting out an energy drink...thats awesome...i mentioned someone should come up with a NOS drink not long after the first Fast&Furious came out....brilliant people.
Posted by: J. M. Kennedy at February 8, 2006 08:56 AMI use to hate the taste of redbull and most energy drinks, but after drinking them for over a year I love the taste. Kronik is one of my favorite tasting on the market. Very unique blend I buy 3-5 a week.
Posted by: K at February 10, 2006 03:15 PMI dig the taste. Taste like sobe a.rush. I found them for .79 cents a can on sale. I don't think it lit me up like a rockstar or monster though.
Posted by: dusin at February 12, 2006 08:40 AMHas anyone tried Red Jak? Just happened to come across a can and I understand it's pretty new to the market. I love the Lo-Carb Red Jak and the fact that it's cheaper and I'm not wasting my money on a piddle 8oz can. It's sweet and has a great flavor,, without that crappy after-taste. Plus mixes great!
Posted by: Amy at February 22, 2006 11:00 AMRed Jak just hit the central Ca. It is by far the best tasting gig out there. A hint of strawberry. Under two dollars. It lit me up for about 6 hrs. a must..
Posted by: dusin at February 26, 2006 05:53 PMNOS is the best. There is no aftertaste and not as sickening as monster. I love it ...... may replace mountain dew. But it is so hard to find!
I have a idea for one of your TV advertisments it goes like this (KID)(DUDE LOOK MY MOM HAS NOS IN HER CAR !!!!!!) (OTHER KID) OH YEA MY DAD HAS NOS ON HIS MOTORCYCLE AS THEY SAY THAT IT SHOWS PICS. OF A CAR WITH YOUR NOS CANNED DRINK AND THEN IT SHOWS PICS. WITH YOUR NOS CANNED DRINK AGAIN AND THEN THEY SAY (NOS SPEED IT UP!!!!!!!!)
Posted by: Josh Taft at March 16, 2006 12:48 PMHi all, I have to tell you NOS is the BEST!! the taste and KICK!! It is kinda hard to find.. best place I have found it is in Gass-stations (SHeets)
I have tryed the Blue Monster, its ok but man what a crazy taste, and the aftertatse is somewhat nasty! The other one I like is JOLK, that is a great taset!
I have tried quite a few SUGAR FREE energy drinks in the last month including NOS. I would say that NOS has the best sugar free tasting drink. I also like that it does not have guarana in it, just caffeine as the stimulant. To much guarana makes many people too anxious even if it is "natural."
just tried NOS today and its the greatest energy drink ever. Like to by some soon
Posted by: cgarner at April 4, 2006 01:47 PMNOS is by far my favorite energy drink. Also, if anyone is interested in trying the worst tasting energy drink ever created, i would recommend "Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt". The combination of the priceless name with the pukeworthy, rotten-apple tasting beverage makes for an interesting experience.
Posted by: tex537 at April 5, 2006 08:37 PMMy crew and I are hitting that NOS like monkeys on electrodes! NOS is tasty, goes down smooth, provides a decent boost, and is very satisfying. Warnings notwithstanding, a 40 oz would be great! The sugar-free version is pretty good for a diet drink, too!
Worst drink is something called 'Energy Deuce.' Also, try hitting the dollar stores for decent off-brands! I found a really tasty brand that i was able to scoop up at $.60 each!
Posted by: TheTulsan.com at April 6, 2006 02:14 PMHi guys, glad must of you like NOS. If anyone need some help finding it let me know.
Posted by: NOSMan at April 7, 2006 11:08 PMTwo weeks ago I was notified by NOS people that I won 2nd Prize in their contest. Prize consists of 1 year supply of NOS energy drink. I've never tried it + never seen it for sale in Chicago. Anyway - I'm still waiting for promised drink. I guess they should ship it to me. Then I'll try it.
Posted by: Baltman at April 18, 2006 01:57 PMCome to Northwest Arkansas. There is an abundance of NOS energy drinks here. EVERY grocery store, EVERY gas station. if you like nos, try ROCKSTAR JUICED.
I have tried 22 different energy drinks that are being sold in Florida corner stores.
My top 3 faves are Kronik, Lost 5-0, Boo Koo double shot.
I thought Nos tasted pretty good. Though, the flavor is similar to many energy-inducing beverages currently on the market.
Posted by: Chris at June 4, 2006 04:15 PMIts like getting used to coffee - the more you drink the stronger you like it ! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrreat - ain't that right Tony!!!
Sobe!
I tried this energy drink called A.C.T. for free just 1 time and I am sold for life. No jitters, smooth with no drop offs. I had this overwhelming feeling of well being and energy through the roof all day from just 1 8oz drink. You just mix it with 8oz. of cold water and it's awesome. This company is a manufacturing company that sells directly to the consumer cutting out the middle man fees. Try it and you will be sold like me! Sign up for free to get product at wholesale prices $1 each serving. Sells for $2.49 retail per serving. I work an early morning paper route and HAVE 8 kids to take care of during the day. I can do it all with this drink.

Posted by: ben d. at August 22, 2006 10:53 AMThe first time I tried this drink I was at the NOPI event in Epping NH and absoluetly love it, so being from Canada I tried to buy some to take back with me but they wouldnt sell any there and I couldnt find any stores that carry it! Can someone please send me some info on if they will be selling it here and where. Or how I can order some.
Thanks

Posted by: mike januscheitis at September 15, 2006 07:41 AMI just had a NOS while me and my gf were watching a movie, and i just drove her home cuz i was puking so much. Nos is F***ed up! it has tons of weird chemicals in it. Don't drink it.
Posted by: Dave at September 15, 2006 11:29 PMNOS energy drink started to appear in Chicago. I see them in JEWEL stores. I also heard that KROGER stores suppose to distribute this drink but there are no such stores in Chicago so I can't confirm such info.
Posted by: BALTMAN at September 25, 2006 12:19 PMMy bf accidently came across it thru a friend and said it was awesome. Though Ive been looking ever since the other day to find it. If Kroger sells it I havent seen it ( Kroger= Texas) and stores like Jewel are Albertsons here in texas. so i havent seen it there either. But I just recently started drinking Monster Khaos its my fav drink and its very fruity and yummy. It has given me a boost.. ive been awake since 12 in the afternoon yesterday and now its 430 am. But if you can find where I can find them in the Dallas area please let me know! thanks
liz
Really like NOS.. passionfruit, as opposed to orange. not too sweet like others I have tried.. In the sugar version, I think the 'aftertaste' is more like the aftereffect of grapefuit juice..maybe there is grapefruit juice in it also?
OH Kroger's carry it, and some gas stations.. Ours its always running out of the sugar version (haven't tried the sugar-free, yet,, really DON"T like artificial sweeteners). Kroger's told me it's a 'vendor item' .Guy actually caought the supplier in the store that day for me and asked him to leave more regular.
If your on the west coast, pretty much every QT and every Fry's has NOS. But they tend to sell off the shelves in the QT's really quickly.
Posted by: tOm at October 29, 2006 10:19 PMhas anyone tried full throttle blue demon?
Posted by: at November 16, 2006 09:37 PMI first tried NOS while working in the Petaluma area, and have been in search of it ever since. This drink has kind of a crappy aftertaste(deit) BUT, here is the difference from any of the other energy drinks I have tried-it gives me a slightly hightened feeling of "well-being" that is hard to describe. Not exactly a "high" to be sure, but awsome anyhow. I rarely find the stuff, so with the great amount of time between consumpsion, it is obvoius to me it is the drink. I thought I was just imagining it the first time! I would order it on-line, but it costs $35 a case AND $20 more to ship to socal......
Posted by: elvis at November 30, 2006 07:20 PMI think NOS is good, but it gave me a headache, chest pains, and stomache ache. I don't know why though. It's weird, I'm definitely not digging that after taste though.
Posted by: Carolee. at December 5, 2006 09:49 AMOh my GOD... NOS has a hell of a kick. I Drank a can at 5pm to help me study for a test... Now its about to be 5AM and i cant sleep. this ED kicks serious ass!
GO NOS! (NAWWWWWWWZ)
Posted by: NOSADDICT at December 6, 2006 05:40 AMHelp! I can't find Rush in the little blue cans anymore. One quick stop store said they couldn't get anymore til Pepsi ditributed it. So what's the hold up? I live in northwest Arkansas.
CAN I BUY THIS DIRECTLY FOR MYSELF AND HAVE IT SHIPPED TO ME?
It says no fruit in it, that's okay, but it tastes like fresh strawberries in sparkling water! And it gives me just enough lift to feel good, not spazed out.
I BUY IT MOSTLY FOR THE TASTE.!!!
NOS is the best drink out there bitchez. Stop hatin on nos, shits good.
Posted by: Nick at December 12, 2006 05:45 AMNos is the best drink out there, bitchez. Stop hatin on the NOS, shits good.
Posted by: Nick at December 12, 2006 05:47 AMi love it its so good..btw the bears suck and the packers rule!!
Posted by: Dan F. at December 18, 2006 09:24 AMi love it its so good..btw the bears suck and the packers rule!!
Posted by: Dan F. at December 18, 2006 09:24 AMThere have been a few times where I drank 3 24 oz Rockstar energy drinks and it gave a decent boost, but the other day i had 2 16 oz NOS and couldn't sleep at all. My body was shaking and I ended up just not going to sleep. It fucked up my stomache too. I guess most energy drinks make you shit bad news, but NOS is hardcore. Out of all the energy drinks i've had (Rockstar, Red Bull, No Fear, Adrenaline Rush, NOS, Monster, and Red Jak), NOS is the most powerful.
Posted by: Derek M. at January 1, 2007 12:13 AMI work graveyard and I have a 4 year old son that doesnt really let me sleep during the day. Ive tried other energy drinks over the past months to help me stay awake at work, and I like NOS the best. It doesnt make me jittery or shaky like some of the others do, it doesnt taste horrid. i hit the store and grab 2 cans for work, one for when I get there ad then one at my lunch break. I am up all night, and its great.
Posted by: Thena at January 2, 2007 04:05 PMI don't totally agree with this review. I used to hate Sobe drinks and I really think its an aquired taste. The first 4-5 times I tried Sobe drinks I didn't like them at all but now that I'm used to them I actually like the taste of it.
Posted by: BenD at January 4, 2007 02:56 PMwelll im the biggest fan cuz i love it.... and u can get it a frys market place... i buy 1 all the time... so shut ur pie holes.. cuz its good

Posted by: soccer plyer at January 10, 2007 08:08 PMImma A NOs Addict!!!!
Posted by: Sammy at January 15, 2007 03:22 PMNOS is pretty good, i grabbed a can at Fred Meyers so i could add it to my collection. it gives a big dose of Caffeine too. From reading around i have found sources that say these things have 400mg of caffeine in a 16oz can!
Posted by: Nathaniel at January 18, 2007 05:01 PMi love nos enrgy drinks i always get them dude it is like a safe way to get high it makes you feel like it
Posted by: petes hottie at March 14, 2007 09:56 AMDude ive tried other drinks and they all seem to be wierd tasting and all unatural, I love nos it kicks some major!!!! ive been drinking it for a long time about a year ive got about 40 cans collected in my room i love it the can the taste all of it. Im what you would call a NOS enthusiest for my hometown. All the health freaks always say crap about energy drinks they just dont know how it feels. They dont know what the f*** they're talkin about it rules all others. So just try it, ive gotten about 20 some people addicted to it, and still counting.
Posted by: NOS lover xtreme at March 16, 2007 07:12 PMWell, I Love NOS. I MANAGE A DRIVE THROUGH LIQUOR STORE AND I REP NOS! I HAVE DRANK MANY ENERGY DRINKS OVER THE YEARS AND NOS TOPS ALL OF THEM. I LIKED IT SO MUCH I HAVE A FOLLOWING OF NOS "FIENS" AT THE DRIVE THRU. SO AS THE LEGEND CHUCK D SAID "DON'T BELIEVE THE NEGATIVE HYPE", ME ADDING THE WORD NEGATIVE TO HIS QUOTE OF COURSE. NOS IS A EXCELLANT CHOICE FOR $2.90 FOR 22 OUNCES OF POWER...
Posted by: digitalM at March 28, 2007 09:32 PMI found NOS at BigLots. For only 60 cents.
Posted by: e-energy at April 8, 2007 08:13 AMthis is one of my favorites NOS is not only great tasting and cheap but it has a pretty good to it and i would give it a 9 of 10 cause the fact i enjoy drinking it. some energy drinks taste terrible and dont pack that much of a punch

We sell it at work so i buy it for cost price + 30C. It rules. And tastes great with vodka.
Just found it in Kelowna, BC, Canada on the westside, at Petro-Canada, and Its looks and tastes great... Although I prefer jolts.

Posted by: Brandon at June 16, 2007 03:22 PMi love nos. i tried it the other day for the first time. being a faithful redbull fan (spending about 20 dollars a week on it) i was skeptical. the taste was great (bottle, not can) and the results shocking. my friends could not stand to be around me, i was literally bouncing off the walls! it was such a rush. loved it! ps. do notttt drink with alcohol.
Posted by: virginia at June 21, 2007 09:10 AMi had the 22 oz : ] it had 343 mg of caffeine. this gave me the biggest kick i've had off of any energy drink so far. the taste isnt too shabby. but who cares? i only wanted this 4 the kick. it gave me wat i needed so... idc wat u other ppl say until u've tried the 22 oz... if u want a kick u really need 2 try it.
Posted by: ifLIFEwasAlie at July 25, 2007 11:56 PMdang where can i find this stuff (nos)

ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO GET NOS ENERGY DRINK IN LOS ANGELES AREA? PREFERABLY NEAR DOWNTOWN L.A AREA.....
Posted by: Cruz at August 30, 2007 01:29 AM
NOS is a requirement when I go skating at the Roller Gardens here in St.Louis Pk, Mn. I'll buy a can and I'm flying through the session, pushing the envelope- even though I have water- I'll get a very strong, stable surge of energy without losing it through jitters which I don't get with this drink. I've tried other drinks(and still trying others)but none them have NOS's even taste or it's energy !!!!
nitrous oxide shots?
i wonder what this tastes like.
this would probably give extra energy boosting similar to the real NOS which gives extra power to cars.
i just bought this and i want to know if it will keep me up all night
HEY ALL YOU ENERGY DRINK LOVERS.........I just tapped into an amazing source for energy drinks and can get them by the case. I thought I might share some with you at a super discounted price. Anyway, here are some of the brands I can get - NOS, ROCKSTAR, FULL THROTTLE, HYDRIVE, BOOKOO, BAWLS. Send me an email if you want more info!
Posted by: Angela at October 8, 2007 03:17 PMnos is like, the most amazing energy drink ever. i have atleast 3 of them a day, its practically my diet, ;D. Its the best, + Whoever dosnt like it can stfu.
Posted by: denyelbabyy at October 12, 2007 09:44 AMHi everyone.
Im doing a essay on why energy drinks are bad for you.
and i was wondering if anyone had any comments.
Like bad experiences with them.
Thanxxs.
if anyone wants to buy NOS let me know.
i am sponsored by them
Great driving recipe.nosenery drink,20oz coke,kingsized milky way.Man what a rush.
Posted by: Dan Porters at January 10, 2008 07:13 PMNOS is some SERIOUSLY potent drink. 15.5 mg of caffeine per oz, which is 2 and a half times as much as Red Bull or Rockstar. Add that to the 2750mg of Taurine and you have a seriously, seriously potent kick. Lightly carbonated, so it goes down smooth. It has a uniqueish taste, hard to describe, but it's good. Wears off in about 3-4 hours, but after half a bottle you still got another 4 left! Drink in moderation kiddies!
Posted by: sammyj at January 17, 2008 05:41 PMwow this nos sounds awesome!
Posted by: nos at January 19, 2008 08:38 AMwhere can i get it?
Posted by: nos at January 19, 2008 08:39 AMHello! Good website, check my at http://pharmacy0.110mb.com/buy+sildenafil+citrate my name is buy sildenafil citrate
Posted by: buy sildenafil citrate at March 14, 2008 01:41 AMI love this shit!!!!! I'm so hooked. I just recently started to drink energy drinks i have also tried Red Bull and Monster they are good to.
I love NOS.. you buy it at Wal-mart 1.78 pur can.I get 20 cans at a time...love it,,love it,monster BLOWS
Posted by: Victor at May 1, 2008 05:21 PMNOS so far is the craziest energy drink I've ever had. I drank it for most of the time during finals review or at any time I'm feeling lazy, and damn...I get things done and end up staying up all night! I usually get it at Autozone (Advanced Auto Parts in East Coast), Pep Boys and sometimes Walmart for like $2, but mostly at automotive stores here in Cali or maybe anywhere in U.S. (it's NOS!, duhrr). People who are highly sensitive to caffeine or are in some illegal drugs or pregnant or kids under maybe.. 14 should not drink this, they'll get f..ed up really bad. I think guarana makes people crash.. how dare they to give it 6 out of 10!! It's the effect that matters, not the taste.
