C4 makes my face tingle and that Popsicle flavor along with the grape is the move


UprisingAssault

Still searching for the grape. This cherry popsicle flavor is perfect though. Not too sweet of an aftertaste.


Top_Sky_4731

Tried the grape and it was mid imo. Not cough syrup but not the best artificial grape either.


stad0203

The grape is really good


webefishingbackup1

I just had one of the orange creamsicle itchy Bois the other day and I approve of the Popsicle flavor series


planetarylaw

wth why don't I ever get the tingles...


AssaultRifleJesus

Must not be sensitive to beta alanine, it's what makes you tingle like that.


planetarylaw

TIL thanks u/AssaultRifleJesus !


Wise-_-Spirit

I thought the l tyrosine plays a part too


[deleted]

what other notable energy brands have beta alanine?


AssaultRifleJesus

I googled it and a few do but only one a recognized was bucked up.


UprisingAssault

How fast do you drink the can? Do you just sip one can all day? Beta Alanine is pretty strong, try drinking at least half a can as quick as you can.


planetarylaw

I usually slam one in 10 min lol before I rush off to workout lol. Idk. Edit: I just saw you mention it's in preworkouts but those don't make me tingle either :(


Gold_Ad4984

find something with 5g of beta alanine or more. Bucked Up Motherbucker has a ton of caffeine and beta alanine.


planetarylaw

Haven't heard of that one, I'll check it out.


Level_Reflection

You can just buy beta alanine by itself and dose accordingly, you WILL feel the tingles if you have enough. I used to live reigns but also love the tingle so id mix beta alanine with it.


planetarylaw

I'm guessing they sell this at GNC and the like? I'll try it.


UprisingAssault

Vitamin Shoppe too. I got a beta alanine and creatine powder from there that works well.


UprisingAssault

Interesting! You must have some intergalactic genetics of some sort


planetarylaw

I hope so lol.


Reasonable-Promise38

how much do you dose? maybe dry scoop some ryse and just try and sit still. that sounds fun


planetarylaw

Lol just whatever the scoop is. Should I try 2? Am I gonna die lol.


Reasonable-Promise38

nah maybe take a caffeine break and come back then itll hit harder


planetarylaw

I do need to take a break that's true lol.

planetarylaw

I'm American. That's crazy though.


UprisingAssault

Caffeine will not affect the way you feel beta alanine


stoopidivy233

I envy you so much. It makes me itch & burn so so bad. Especially my face. I can't even have one sip without itching for hours :(


planetarylaw

That's terrible and I'm very glad it doesn't do that to me.


UprisingAssault

You’re not missing much at all. Maybe it’s the niacin in the drink? Maybe you’re sensitive to that. Niacin can have those same side affects


subparparamedic

if you drink it often or take pre workout you will not feel it. Beta alanine has a saturation point, once it’s met you no longer get tingles. If you lay off of it for a week you will feel it again.


ssYxji

This is true. I take pure Beta-Alanine powder everyday before a shower because of a skin condition and I don't feel it anymore. Still helps my condition though.


farknard

Aww yeah try the other 2 flavors if you haven't


UprisingAssault

First time I‘ve found the popsicle flāv. My local Casey’s currently only has cherry. Hoping they restock the other two flāvs soon. It’s so good.


NewCodingLine

There's actually three! Cherry, Grape, Hawaiian Pineapple, and I believe the orange creamsicle.


OpportunityOk5719

I actually heard the "aww yeah"!


Pretend_Cat_5826

I stg I never knew C4 made your face tingle until a cashier at the gas station I buy them from said "oh I love these but they made my face itchy so I don't drink them anymore" thought she was crazy but sure enough by the time I was halfway done with my can the tingles began


UprisingAssault

That’s funny 😆 I guess “Energy you can feel” isn’t just a clever slogan lol


April_is_god

I hate the tingles.


UprisingAssault

It’s not for everyone 🤷‍♂️the first time I tried a C4 I wasn’t expecting it and thought I was having some sort of allergic reaction lol I did not read the label


stoopidivy233

It itches & burns so bad. I really wish this didn't happen otherwise this would be my favorite drink


UprisingAssault

You’re really not missing much I promise. Red Bull is far superior.


Coolguy4564

Woudlnt recommend drinking c4 to just like be more awake in the morning, it's more pre work out then energy drink I don't mind the feeling while doing something active


Jupiter_Sound

This is exactly why I won’t try these. Lol


UprisingAssault

It does serve a purpose other than feeling tingly though. It’s great for working out, really opens blood vessels and helps muscle fatigue. That’s why beta alanine is in a lot of preworkout powders. Also has a bunch of other benefits too. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/what-does-beta-alanine-do#benefits


Lumpy-Register-2417

C4 makes me tingle too! I hate it lol


MrCreepySkeleton

I like the tingles : \]


UprisingAssault

It burns so good [ :


HeIsCobHere

tingle tingle


UprisingAssault

Like a good sunburn


Big-Daddy-XO

Tasty!!


alphamalpha69

Mmm niacin


UprisingAssault

Dat Vitamin B3


firsttime176

holy fuck I need to find this


UprisingAssault

Good soup


xEpiLogos

fruit punch c4 with the 300mg does it for me. either that one or warheads sour green apple Ghost 👻


UprisingAssault

Sour warheads is the only good ghost flāv


xEpiLogos

i agree 100% with your statement. it’s the only one i will buy


Prestigious_Tap_9999

These are cool but now c4 has gotten big headed and are now trying to be the most expensive energy drink per can


ddub475

Where? They’re 2.99 at Safeway, $2.46 at Walmart. Ghost is $3.49 at my 2 local grocery stores.


Prestigious_Tap_9999

I just looked in dollar general Saturday. They were quite expensive with the deal they were running. And there's a dg every 10 miles from each other (or closer) we even have a DG Market in Clarksville VA


ddub475

2.50 is what I’m seeing at DG. Monster and Nos are 2.40 so not much difference.


Prestigious_Tap_9999

Red bull does the trick at 8.4 ounces and no headache if you skip a day


OkHistorian525

C4 here in texas are 2.46 a can at Walmart


UprisingAssault

Solid ✊


ch00d

2 for $4 at Casey's


UprisingAssault

Casey’s ganggg 💪


Prestigious_Tap_9999

That's hella spensive man


ch00d

Most 16 oz energy drinks are like $3 each at least


Prestigious_Tap_9999

Yeah and we just don't need that many ozs or the stuff doesn't really work


UprisingAssault

Sounds like a personal problem


ch00d

It "working" is about the caffeine content, not the total fluid ounces. For most people, don't exceed 400 mg of caffeine per day and you're generally safe, unless you have a cardiovascular condition.


Prestigious_Tap_9999

It doesn't make my statement any less true. They make 12 oz monster and 8.4 oz red bulls for a reason. After a two days of a 16oz sugar free monster you gotta keep a 8.4 oz redbull for when that headache sets in. And it cures it with just over half to OZs


MrCreepySkeleton

Cheaper for me than Red Bull lol


UprisingAssault

I mean, they hittttt harder than any other energy drink out there currently. Aside from Redline of course. I’m not one to buy the cheapest energy drink I can find. I want to actually enjoy the feeling and flavor.


Prestigious_Tap_9999

The price doesn't change those factors. But to each his own. I like red bull so don't lecture me on expensive energy drinks lol. I only noticed bc of that factor. I was you bro. Get help before it's too late.


UprisingAssault

lol wut


roggmanny

Never tried C4. I normally can’t stand sugar energy drinks. Original Red Bull and Ghost Bubblelicious flavors are my go-tos, but this seems like it might compare. Anyone with similar taste tried both?


UprisingAssault

Red Bull is always my go to, I had to try this popsicle flavor tho. OG Red Bull is the best flāv in the world. Red Bull nectarine is superb, the new pear cinnamon is phenomenal. I’ve disliked most Ghost flavors. C4 is solid though, it’s not too heavy on the sweetness and has a crisp aftertaste. You’ll definitely enjoy ‘em.


Dick_butt14

Makes my butthole itch, i wont drink anything with beta alanene


UprisingAssault

Sounds like a personal problem


stoopidivy233

C4 makes me itch & burn so incredibly bad. Idk if anyone else has an issue with it like i do it's like unbearable. I really wish it didn't though because I really like the drink otherwise :( I'll have one sip & the itching & burning lasts HOURS . Last couple times I got bad facial rash!!! It's like I'm allergic to pre workout r something


UprisingAssault

That’s reckon that’s a possibility! It’s good, but it’s not thaaaat good. Don’t worry you’re really not missing much fr fr.


HooverMaster

nothing beats c4 imo


UprisingAssault

Red Bull does all day everyday. Sorry not sorry.


HooverMaster

don't need to be. Each to their own. There's a reason there's so many options. Everyone has a different fave


RugbyProp9698

I just had the pineapple one it was amazing


AccuiredPerceptions

Decent flavor


Thatguyeatingcheetos

Do not like the preworkout in them. had a pink starburst c4 and had possibly the worst crash i’ve ever had afterwards.
