3xBx2: Trouble
In lieu of a 3xB this week, Tonzi and I decided to try something a little different. A premium malt beverage with natural and artificial flavors. We are speaking of none other than Four Loko!
I went with the Lemonade Flavor and Tonzi went with Watermelon Flavor, both 12%.
The lemonade had a very familiar flavor, a tart lemon flavor with some sweetness. Yeah that’s pretty much it…shitty sweet-tart malt beverage.
The watermelon tastes like a watermelon Jolly Rancher crossed with a series of dead animals ranging from an elephant down to a squirrel. I was excited about the watermelon idea, but it the execution really didn’t work out.
So, do yourself a favor… drink Four Loko 4 at a time. By the time you get to the third, you likely can’t taste it, and the whole purpose of the drink will have worked out to your advantage.

PS: Apparently it no longer has all the crazy caffeine shit anymore, which is why it was available.
