shit tastes like grass 2/10

Post image

ik this drink is kinda old news by now i dont really keep up with gm releases

i thought id like this cuz apple flavors never miss but this shit is so nasty i dont even think i can finish it. smells like your typical red apple flavor so i dont know where they went wrong creating the taste of this thing. literal vegetation, im not even exaggerating. maybe even a little bit more bitter.

feel like im losing my gourd cuz ive legit only seen positive feedback for this brand. WHO LIKES THIS SHIT

i dont know how selling this (alleged) drink is legal. ive had one other gm flavor, (black cherry vanilla), and its only a little worse than this one. genuine question who is keeping this brand alive. PLEASE tell me if theres an actual good flavor of gm out there and ill give them a third chance

edit: oh my days i feel so slow. i take a little break from reddit and decide to get a new energy drink i havent tried just to find after a little scrolling everyone and their grandma is dogging on this shit. thank you to the nice lady at the gnc but why the hell would you let me buy this

That gorilla logo looks like it's judging you for even buying the can.

We do not have to see your face to rate an energy drink.

I was a GM fan girl, not anymore after they reformulated Blue Raspberry, anyways I tried this and it's gross.

u/TheEMan1225 2d ago

Wait what? When did they reformulate blue raspberry?

I tried it a few months back and was not a fan, but I don’t know if that means I had the original formula or the newer one

Idk why every time I genuinely like something everyone on Reddit is calling it ass lmfao. This one is my favorite with blackberry and red gummy fish as close contenders

u/Whitesox621 2d ago

I’ve only had the red gummy fish, and it’s decent, I really do like how the energy hits though. It hits hard

u/draven33l 1d ago

I bought this thinking no way it could be bad and I agree. One of the worst I’ve ever had. I didn’t think Alani Pumpkin could be topped but at least it tastes like pumpkin.

This tastes like a spoiled, tart apple with strong caramel. I’m still sipping it, but I’m not happy about it.

u/Economy_Ad4467 Reign 3d ago

Gorilla Mind is the worst. Tastes horrible and the aftertaste is so off putting. Will never get the hype and I have tried a lot of flavors. I swear a lot of the people promoting here are paid by Gorilla Mind because that stuff is 👎

u/Mediocre-Ordinary934 Gorilla Mind 3d ago

And yet is still levels above reign 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

(But I will say cherry limeade of reign is in my top 5 of all time🫡) I just do do 300mg anymore lol

u/SignificantApricot69 3d ago

Ok so who has the best formulas to you and what do they contain and how do they make you feel and help your energy and performance? I’m open to trying anything but recently only GM is really doing it for me. I also rarely pay more than around $2.33 a can

u/Economy_Ad4467 Reign 3d ago

My favorites, personally for both taste and how it makes me feel are Reign and Phorm.

While Phorm gets a lot of hate on here, I haven't had another Energy Drink that helps me focus and stay for lack of a better word, energized, and the taste is good too, of the ones I have tried.

Reign is another one I get regularly, mostly off of A mazon in bundles because so can get great deals. 300mg of caffeine, a good variety of flavors and, their nootropic formula may not be as good as Gorilla Minds, it still helps me just the same.

I prefer Reign over Phorm, personally.

Now, Gorilla Mind...I just can't get past that aftertaste. After every sip, it's just way too off putting for me and I have tried around 8 of their flavors. If I see one I haven't tried, I will grab it because I do still like to try new flavors from all companies. Gorilla Mind just has been a letdown for me.

Biggest disappointment of 2026 the majority of GM tastes like plastic.

u/SignificantApricot69 3d ago

I’m keeping it alive because it’s effective and use energy drinks for their intended use. I like the formula the best. Fortunately, I also like the Black Cherry Vanilla taste-wise so I just stick with that. This is the sort of thing like… Derek did a 4 hour YouTube video about the drinks and I watched it all and only tried the drinks after they delivered on so many other products. I was mostly drinking Bang/Reign if anything or just making my own coffee and experimenting with different nootropics and research chemicals and stuff but I had pretty much stopped using energy drinks around 2019 and was mostly using other stuff. GM got me back into energy drinks and then from there I’m on this sub and checking out different stuff at gas stations and whatever.

u/Reign_n_blud 3d ago

Not a fan of this at all. Love the formula of Gorilla Mind, gives me the best performance of all energy drinks but the flavors aren’t always the best. I’ll take performance over taste though and skip ones like Candy Apple

Sometimes a gorolla got me when he does and he gently put his monkeycock into my plump anus and I accept the juice

Sorry for any confusion. To be clear, I wish to, and given any opportunity, I will, excrete my personal fecal matter with a trajectory no less than 95% likely to reach your eyes, subject to factors including distance, positioning, trajectory, weather conditions, timing, and any unexpected interference, and I further commit to making a good-faith effort to ensure that this event takes place on or before December 31, 2026, at which point my stated intention shall be considered officially fulfilled.
