M-150 Still Energy Drink

M-150, I got this energy drink at the same Asian Import store as where I got Carabao.
Speaking of Carabao, this drink and Carabao have a lot in common.

This drink comes in a good looking 150 ml glass bottle (I think that's where the name M-150 originates from).
The bottles' graphics are mainly yellow, and so is the tube hood.
M-150's logo exists of a red sheriff star, containing a big yellow M in the Middle.
The M is situated in a thin yellow circle which contains three words: DEVOTION, COURAGE, SACRIFICE.

The drink itself tastes a lot like Carabao.
It's non carbonated and has a light lemon flavor.
It's pretty much like a cough medicine actually, but that certainly isn't a bad thing.

The buzz is pretty much the same as the buzz that Carabao gave me, meaning that it gave me a real kick in about half an hour.
So my overall review would be: A pretty good drink with a pretty cool bottle, but an awful lot like Carabao...

Carabao

Contains: 0,15L (Bottle), 0,25L (can)

Carabao,
I bought those two at a new local shop that sells Asian import products (a toko). I was pretty surprised when I saw they sold a small 8.4 fl.oz can and a 5.07 fl.oz glass bottle. I couldn't make up my mind wich to choose, so I bought both, together with a M-150 bottle and a Wonderland Ginseng drink.
When I got home, I couldn't wait, so I opened the small, green can. The smell was great, like a clear lemon. When I tasted it, I reacted like: 'woo, great flavor!', and it sure is. A very strong lemon drink comes into your mouth, just awesome! With that, it's non-carbonated, so the taste isn't ruined with bubbles. It's no Red Bull clone for sure! Probably one of the best you can get. I couldn'tt wait to open the glass bottle, but I had to, I had 4 energy drinks that day, and that was enough.
After about half an hour I felt the buzz kicking in. This is the first 'real' energy drink I've drunk, so I was pretty surprised it really worked.
