The year 2024 has quickly entered August, and as is often the case every year, this summer is intensely hot.
Every time you walk outside, you suffer from the heat, exhausting not only your hydration but also your physical strength.
We gamers typically drink energy drinks to stock up on energy, but often, the types we drink cannot be resealed once opened.
While bottled cans have become more common for classic flavors, you'd ideally want to enjoy your favorite flavor for longer in a convenient, portable bottled can.
This time, we'll review the easy-to-drink flavor that everyone loves—the less "energy drink-like" flavor, the Pink Monster, or "Monster Pipeline Punch," which has finally appeared in a bottled can.
The Popular Flavor Appears in a Large-Capacity, Easy-to-Carry Bottle Can! "Monster Pipeline Punch Bottle Can 500ml" Releases on August 6
First Impression: It's HUGE...
I want you to look at the sheer size of this thing... it has way more presence than the standard 355ml. What's up, can we talk?
Not only the height but the grip area, too, is about one size larger.
It's like a kind ex-boyfriend turned into a reliable older brother.
Your back is huge....
Monster means the Energy Poem!
I was curious if the Energy Poem changed for the bottled can, but it hasn't changed despite being bigger!
Oh, you haven't changed your mindset even though you got bigger!
Regarding the lid, it features the Monster trademark.
The Monster trademark on the pink color, which is the image color of "Monster Pipeline Punch," is cute.
While the "Monster Pipeline Punch 500ml Can Bottle" had the same Energy Poem and packaging, there's a difference in the surface texture!
The 355ml can has a rough, textured finish, but the bottle can is smooth!
What about the nutritional information?
After comparing the external differences, next, let's check the nutritional information!
Per 100ml, the values are as follows:
- Energy: 44kcal
- Protein: 0g
- Fat: 0g
- Carbohydrates: 10g
- Salt Equivalent: 0.06g
- Vitamin B2: 0.7mg
- Niacin: 8.5mg
- Vitamin B6: 0.8mg
- Vitamin B12: 1.0 - 6.0μg
- L-Arginine: 53mg
- Ginseng: 82mg
- L-Carnitine: 29mg
- Caffeine: 40mg
The nutritional information is the same as the 355ml can!
First, Let's Try Drinking and Comparing!
The container is different, but the content is the same? That doesn't matter.
That's because if there's an energy drink there, the only choices are "Yes" or "Yes."
Let's start with the 355ml.
AGGH
My nails are long, and opening the pull tab HURTS!! (Seriously, if you open it carelessly, your nail might break.)
I can't drink the 355ml like this... wait?
You are the 500ml with the huge back!
500ml: "Do you want power..."
I see, I can open this with my hand without using my long nails!
CRACK
Yay!
The company probably never thought of this kind of benefit, but this design was truly appreciated!
Now that it's successfully opened, let's check the color!
Since the contents are the same, it's orange, just like the existing product!
The taste is, as expected, the usual Pink Monster.
The sweetness of passion fruit and orange is strong, and the carbonation is relatively weak.
The consistent drinkability of Monster Energy's juice series! Before you know it, you're constantly bringing it to your mouth.
The 500ml Bottle Can Is Now Available Nationwide!
The "Monster Pipeline Punch 500ml Can Bottle" was released nationwide on Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
