Bawls doesn't do anything for me, except give me gutrot several hours later. But I love it nonetheless. Monster is good too! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
We don't get "bawls" here in SD, so... we usually pound Roaring Lion, I believe it is very similar. We do get Red Bull and I must agree it does taste horrible. The Roaring Lion, tastes very similar to Mountain Dew, but with more sugar and caffinee.

I don't use it for yager bombs or anything like that, I just like it straight. Tastes good, keeps me awake. (that was about 6 weeks worth, it got too expensive)

There's nothing quite like a glass of perfect tempreture water after a hot bath.

Oh, and mountain dew too
Just my way of doing things.

*edit 2* The bar I worked at, didn't use a 5:1 mixing ratio it was more 2:1 (Two parts water, to one part Roaring Lion). :-)
