Drink, Variety Pack, 200mg Plant-Based Caffeine, 12 Pack | Real fruit juice; L-Theanine, Taurine, Ginseng, Acetyl L-Carnitine; no added sugar, no artificial colors, 16 Oz can

I'm a bit newer to energy drinks but a friend recommending trying Gorilla. Hadn't heard of them before and wasn't sure which flavor to get so I got the variety pack. Gotta say.....I think I might've found my new to go. Biggest factor for me was the naturally derived caffeine, real fruit juice and overall clean label. The drink did it's job and keep me focused and ready to tackle on whatever the day threw at me. No crazy jitters (which is one of the reasons why I've kinda stayed away from energy drinks). Also....the flavors!!! Mango Coconut easily my top favorite. Might just get this flavor by itself next order!

I’m super picky about what I put in my body, so clean ingredients are my absolute number one priority. Usually, "clean" energy drinks taste like water or do absolutely nothing for me. But this one actually does the job. It gives me a great, steady boost of energy to get through my day, and I don't get any of that shaky, anxious feeling or the awful afternoon crash. So glad I found this.

I picked this variety pack up expecting a premium energy/focus experience, but that's where I made my first mistake. I confused this brand with the highly popular "Gorilla Mind" supplement line. This is a completely different company. If you are looking for the Gorilla Mind energy drinks with the extensive nootropic stack, this isn't it. That mix-up is on me, but the branding is similar enough that it's worth warning others. The Taste (Perfectly "Mid"): Flavor is always subjective, but across the variety pack, these are just average. They aren't offensively bad, but they don't stand out either. They taste like the standard, run-of-the-mill energy drinks you'd find at the back of any gas station cooler. If you're picky about flavor profiles, these might leave you underwhelmed. The Energy (Why it gets 3 Stars instead of 1): Despite the flavor and the brand confusion, the drink still delivers on its primary promise. It packs 200mg of natural caffeine, which is a solid dose for getting through a long afternoon of scheduling or site walks. The caffeine hits smoothly without the aggressive jitters of synthetic alternatives, so it functions well as a work tool. Verdict: It’s a functional caffeinated beverage that will keep you awake, but it is nothing special in the flavor department. Most importantly, double-check the label before you hit "buy" so you don't make the same brand mix-up I did.

* Great flavor without being overly sweet or syrupy. * The energy feels smooth and steady—I stayed focused without feeling overly jittery. * The ingredient profile is thoughtfully put together, which made me more interested in trying it than some of the bigger brands. * It feels like a fresh alternative in a crowded energy drink market, with a balance of taste and performance that worked well for me. * Definitely one of the more impressive new energy drinks I’ve tried. I’d absolutely recommend giving Gorilla Energy a try if you’re looking for a new option beyond the usual brands.

Complete scam, nearly every flavor is undrinkable. The best way you could describe half of the drinks included is "able to digest without vomiting." I'm sure whoever reading this is wondering why the drink is cheaper than other options or considering trying something new, but I assure you whatever reasoning you have is not worth spending your hard earned currency on whatever this is supposed to be.

I always try new energy drinks. My go-to is Monster but will now buy Gorilla when I see it in stores. Tons of flavor but doesn’t feel sugary. Energy is strong and didn’t feel any crash. Mango coconut was best flavor, but to each is own.

These are definitely for folks who already like or love energy drinks. Until recently, I've been more of a 5-hour shot bottle person and I'm still not one to drink an energy drink for enjoyment. THOUGH, I will say that the Cherry Berry flavor verges on being quite drinkable and was my favorite in the collection. I could sip that over time because it tastes the closest to its name and I didn't notice much aftertaste. Ultimate is a citrus-forward "energy drink flavor." The one that disappointed me most was the Mango Coconut. I was really looking forward to it because it was described as "smooth, refreshing" and "light." Nope. It was like getting punched in the mouth by a Gorilla holding a mango and a coconut in each fist. I'm all for flavor, including bold flavors, but they should've called it "Tropical Beatdown" to set expectations. As far as an energy or focus boost, I started feeling it about halfway into the first can. If you drink this in the evening, don't be surprised if you're up for a while. The ingredients look pretty good, and the caffeine source is novel. I'll have to look into that more. The price is a little on the high side - a single-can price for a multi-pack - but that may be because I haven't seen it rolled out to any of my local grocery stores yet.

Really impressed with these. The flavors are actually refreshing and don't have that overly artificial taste that a lot of energy drinks do. I like that they use real fruit juice, and the 200mg of caffeine gives a solid energy boost without making me feel jittery. The variety pack is great because you can try different flavors and find your favorite. Definitely one of the better energy drinks I've had and I'll be buying again. One of my favorites was the Watermelon Melon.
