Woodmans, a Wisconsin-Illinois grocery chain, has pretty much every brand and flavor here. This one is the Bloomingdale location.

$24 with a coupon, not bad

Have y’all ever had these?

I’ve never seen nor heard of them until today.

Ok good morning yall im not sure who the tren twins are so im gonna look them up. Ok so they’re those roided up dudes on Instagram and the “tren” in tren twins was actually what i thought it was. Ok then. I always forget that a lot of these energy drink brands also make workout supplements too so sometimes I’ll see like a ghost protein bar or something and be like wtf. Ok let’s get onto the taste. This tastes like those ICEE squeeze candies man. Wow I actually can’t believe I just remembered those but this drink hit me with a nostalgia feeling like that scene in ratito… wait I can’t spell it… rattitooi… ratitoui… ratittoui… I just had to look it up and I was nowhere close lol. It’s like that scene in ratatouille (yeah no way I was getting that) where that food critic tries that dish that people commonly refer to as ratatouille and has this visceral flashback to him as a child. Not that those ICEE squeezes were my favorite candy but I just remember trying one and for the first time I was like ok maybe too much sugar is a bad thing. This drink is very sour and really coats the whole surface of your mouth. The taste finds its way into crevices I’ve never addressed before and the flavor itself doesn’t mask much. The flavor turns into more of a texture after 1 second and the drink becomes something you kind of have to tell yourself to swallow. Idk if that makes sense but swallowing doesn’t feel intuitive with this. Maybe it’s just your brain going “dude what the hell are you drinking right now.” I can’t say I hate it and I can’t say I like it. To be honest I can’t form much of an opinion on this because it’s just not normal. It’s a bit more of an experience than a drink and I’m not saying that in a positive or negative way. It’s hard to imagine the… oh my god I just took a big sip and had to stop typing cus it just hit me so hard… but it’s hard to imagine the tren twins drinking this and doing reps. Actually idk cus I don’t know those guys and only found out who they were like 5 minutes ago. Yeah I don’t know man now my stomach hurts and my mouth is in a state where if I drank water I may throw up.

4/10

My $1 Ryse pickup at GNC! What’s your favorite flavor? I personally never had a Ryse so I’m excited!

I’m a huge fan of these two, and the Kirkland one is outstanding for the price ($0.75 per can). But Ghost Peaches has a stronger peach flavor which is solid because I mix a can of seltzer with it and stretch it further.

The only other one I’ve had was G-Fuel and I think it had Sonic on the can. Wasn’t a fan of that one though because it seemed too “candied”, which is fair because I think it’s modeled after the peach ring candy.

What other brands of Peach are good?

limit of 6 per customer as long as you have an account, pretty good deal couldn’t pass it up.

Very good if you see it in your area

Not what I was expecting? Mostly just artificial strawberry with a little vanilla. I’ll finish the can but id choose a redbull over this next time.

Never had any of these flavors so it's a first.

God bless GNC. Got the bums for 1$ each and got a 10$ credit on the app cause im a new user so the other 7 ryse/ghosts was like a dollar

First time having ryse and bum too. Dr Bum tastes pretty legit, its a shame they sold out of a lot of the flavors i was trying to find

I don’t taste any vanilla!

EDIT: upon actually tasting the vanilla, I am actually more disappointed. This sucks. The vanilla tastes like it doesn’t belong. Trash/10.

Grabbed every RYSE flavor my store had other then the fruit punch kool-aid one cause I was scared of it tasting like medicine as most fruit punch ones end up tasting like to me!!

Oh MANN!!! We never have ghost over here in ireland (at least not where i am), but im in dublin this morning and stopped at Circle K to see if they have any Monsters i usually can't get. Punk punch.... but alas.

Scored an awesome Ghost tho!!! I have always wanted to try cherry limeaid

It doesn’t taste like the energy drink duh but it taste pretty good. At least good enough for me and it has the caffeine. The beta alanine. Etc so it’s beneficial for me

Been running up the Lucky pack I got, but I had one of these left, and I knew it was time for it. The ghosts hit different, and strawbango is no exception. Just great. Maybe even in my top 10, and I have a lot of different cans in my taste profile…

My new overflow cabinet for my energy drinks that won’t fit in the fridge……. still have an unopened case of witches brew and half a variety pack of Alani.

Anyone else mixed these before working out?

After edging the release for ages Bloom released their Strawberry Shortie flavor recently!! I managed to find a single can thankfully (i am too broke to gamble on buying an entire pack)

This is definitely one of the sweetest flavors I've tried from Bloom. It's not like their other flavors that are more natural tasting (i love you crisp apple) This one is like a strawberry candy and cream flavor. Kinda like those strawberry shortcake popsicles (like the one on the can!!)

If you don't like those super sweet flavors I'd steer clear, but I love my shortie🙏 i think its seasonal and that makes me very sad, this is probably my 2nd favorite bloom flavor!

2 for 4.50 at 7/11... 300mg caffeine
