BAWLS review

This review is, primarily, for the sake of getting stake on a SodaStream Fountain Jet Soda Maker Kit available through BzzAgent (http://www.bzzagent.com/daily/view/sodastream-daily-bzz#). BzzAgent is a website in which you can sign up for "campaigns" in order to receive items to test and give away, and review the item to create a positive word of mouth. I've gone through numerous campaigns and it is a truly awesome site.

Anyway, on to the brief review.

Bawls comes in a variety of different flavors and two different sizes. When I first began drinking BAWLS, it was the blue glass bottle, easily noticed by the bubbles on the bottle (122 bubbles in total on a glass bottle). Since then, BAWLS has created a cherry and rootbeer flavor, as well as a diet version (BAWLS EXXTRA). Since I am a die hard original fan, I'll focus there.




BAWLS is a drink that is not like many other energy drinks -- it actually tastes good. I've had a fair share of monsters, red bulls, etc. N
one of them really are appealing to my taste buds. BAWLS has a fruity taste to it similar to Sprite or 7up, but at the same time better.

There is a slight difference in taste from the bottle to the can, however. It isn't significant, but it is similar as to switching from bottled Coke to cans. Don't get me wrong, the difference does not detract from the deliciousness -- just something that die hard fans might notice. One thing I love about the bottle, though, is the satisfying pop of the cap and that first fizzy sip. Truly one of a kind.

There is also a product called BAWLS mints, which are small caffeinated pills that you can eat separately or pop 'em in your BAWLS drink (some call it fizzy BAWLS). I have tried it myself, but personally prefer both of them in their original form.


As proof of my dedication, I requested a sponsorship from BAWLS and got a response from their VP with a patch that I sewed on to my fencing uniform. I have no problem promoting the brand, or any other brand that I truly love.

If I had to rate BAWLS versus all other sodas and energy drinks, it'd easily be my number one. The only issue, however, is getting the stuff! They are expanding their brand, but it takes time. For now, you can purchase them in packs off of thinkgeek.com, amazon.com, and other such websites.
