Grabbed some at my local 7-11 on the way to school on friday. Its called Pitch Black II now, as they added a "sour bite" to the flavoring. I wish this drink was year around, but as i think it wont last long past Early November, its time to stock up!

ROCK!

 

[Ecrofirt]

LiveWire >> Pitch Black

 

[Zeo]

LiveWire SUCCCCCCCCKSSSSSSSSSSS.

It's just freaking flat orange soda.

MD > CodeRed > Pitch Black > LiveWire

fin.

 

[CB3]

:lol I dont know what you all see in livewire. Sure its good but not much different than Orange Fanta or Sunkist. Cactus Cooler>>>> any orange flavored drink.

 

[Der Kommisar]

FUCK THE SOUR BITE!

PITCH BLACK 1 > PITCH BLACK 2

 

[Late Stage Marxist]

Is this actually black like cola or is it that grape stuff?

 

[Friend]

hmmm, i wonder if these have every10minute.com codes.

 

[CB3]

grape

 

[Late Stage Marxist]

grape

Ah ok. I got a sample half-litre bottle of the original stuff when I was in the states. It was okay. I have to be in the mood for fruit-flavoured soda. eg. I only have orange soda like twice a year on average.

 

[Dice]

I had some of this last week. I agree:

Pitch Black 1 >>>>>> Pitch Black 2

To coin some 90's slang, it really does bite.

 

[Diablos]

I tried Pitch Black last year and it tastes like shit.

 

[SlickWilly223]

Man, drink water. Do you know how bad soda, or more particularly Mountain Dew is for you?

I mean, shit. 46g of sugar. 46g of carbs. 180 calories, I think? That's fucking terrible. It takes you 15 minutes just to run one can of mountain dew off on a treadmill.

Try it again! It has a sour bite now!

Made the switch six months ago. Lost ten pounds in three months by doing nothing else.

Beg for forgiveness my son. Beg for it.

 

[Diablos]

I typically don't drink soda, but I was curious.

 

[Mashing]

LiveWire >> Pitch Black

Quoted for truth

I drink the hell out of that shit.

 

[Der Kommisar]

LiveWire >> Pitch Black

Well if you guys wanna go that route...

Code Red > Pitch Black > LiveWire

Code Red > Pitch Black > LiveWire

New Orleans flood water > Pitch Black

 

[GhaleonEB]

Beg for forgiveness my son. Beg for it.

I lost weight, my teeth don't hurt anymore.....nah, not gonna beg.

You can be comforted in knowing that all my soda tastes like shit, though.

There are some awesome diet sodas out there, man. Diet Dr. Pepper is an obvious one, but a lot of the "not as obvious" ones are some of the best. I love Diet Cherry 7-Up and Diet Ruby Red Squirt, they're amazingly good. Diet A&W Root Beer is pretty salvagable, and I'm a root beer snob. Diet Code Red is outrageously good. Both Diet Cherry Coke & Pepsi are pretty awesome too. Be adventurous, I did, and it kept me drinking diet soda for like 3 or 4 years. I got off the train, but I'm back on now.

 

[Diablos]

Oh and instead of making another thread: EVERY CARBONATED "ENERGY" DRINK TASTES LIKE SHIT.

Like the Rockstar one? WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY. It's like carbonated salt. What the hell.

 

[Red Scarlet]

Hmm..I thought Pitch Black tasted bad until about the third one, then it was awesome. I still have 1 unopened can left..hope the sour one is alright..

Surge > LiveWire > Pitch Black 1 > Code Red > Mt Dew

I heard that LiveWire was discontinued due to Sunkist..I really liked it better. :/

I was exaggerating, slightly. Lots of them are terrible - diet colas are all pretty nasty, IMHO. Dr. Pepper has the best diet I've tried. I just had a diet Livewire and thought it was pretty bad, too.

In general, no diet soda tastes nearly as good as the original, at least not that I found. I think my mistake is drinking the diet versions of the sodas I like in regular. As you said, if I get more adventurous I may find more stuff out there. I'll try some of the ones you suggested.

 

[ToyMachine228]

Mt Dew: Code Red is by far my favorite soda. I tried Pitch Black last year, and it was all right. Does the new "Sour Bite" make it better or worse in your opinion? I might try it, it all depends.

Frankly, i don't know if it's the taurine and gaurana that adds to the mineral taste of a lot of energy drinks, but i'd wager that the taste of energy drinks is simply too complex for the majority of Americans who'd rather suck down caffeinated sugar waters like Mountain Dew.

Never had Rockstar though.

 

[atomsk]

i didnt particularly care for pitch black last year, it was a bit too sweet for my tastes...

so i'm sitting here with a 20oz bottle of the new stuff, trying to finish it. it's worse i think.

what are your guys opinions on Baha Blast?

Tastes like Sour Cream Mountain Dew.

 

[WrathOfOtaibah]

That Taco Bell exclusive Mountain Dew is the best. I forget the name but its kind of blue-green.

 

[B'z-chan]

Frawg thats the one i like. None of this Pitch Black shit. FRAWG bitches it'll own your asses. Head to 7-11.

I still have some Livewire thats good as well.

 

[Desperado]

Cactus Cooler>>>> any orange flavored drink.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

It takes you 15 minutes just to run one can of mountain dew off on a treadmill.

 

[TAJ]

I disagree with that Nintendo DS. I get a ridiculous amount of exercise, but if I eat a lot of carbs, I still get gain weight.
Also, seven years ago, during a period where I was far less active, I lost 45 pounds of fat in a couple months doing no exercise. So no, just no.
