General Chat / Four Lokos

Anyone ever try this stuff? It's seriously a blackout in a can... 12% alcohol by volume, with the mixings of an energy drink in the size of an Arizona Iced Tea can. First had it in STL the other week after hearing about it for the past couple months... seriously crazy stuff. Fruit Punch and Watermelon is the best... Cheap too, $1.99 on post, about $2.50 off from what I've seen. Drink two - three and you're done.

Yeah, I like orange the best

This is actually starting to get banned from certain places
I wouldn't be surprised if states start banning it within the year

Great stuff. The energy gives me a totally unique drunk that jagerbombs give me as well. Easy to drink as well

I tried two flavours... I think it was the blue one and the lemonade. Terrible, terrible beverage. I almost threw it up all over the bus stop I was drinking it at.

HMM...never tried it before...

i've been seeing a lot of kids at shows lately with these things.
they look so similar to the fruity colored arizona teas, that it took me a while to catch on to the fact that its alcohol.

i've heard they'll mess you up fairly quickly though.
i wouldn't know personally though. i've been sober for the last 19 years;]

Let me guess they tastes like crap. Like all energy drinks or energy drink+alcohol

Worse, actually.

Try the Fruit Punch or Watermelon and you may change your mind... it's like candy.

I always wanted a beer belly and a brain that sinks in on the left side. Go bud light!

I read an article the other day that some universities and even states are banning/getting laws passed to get these banned. Some college had 23 freshmen and sophomores hospitalized because of these.

I've had blue raspberry, fruit punch, and orange. So far fruit punch is my favorite. Recently, I've gotten to be a pretty big fan of these "energy beers" as my friends call them. They certainly give the more energetic than normal buzz. Before Four Lokos, I had "Max" until it was recently discontinued by Busch. Joose isn't bad either. This whole controversy will blow over shortly and is just a timely response to appease those concerned with this latest trend in drinking. As long as they continue to sell Everclear (95% grain alcohol and illegal in quite a few states) here in Colorado, I don't predict any legislature will pass to stop these. They mention banning them on universities, but almost all universities are dry campuses to begin with, especially in the dorms. Eliminating one product from the market won't change anything but the choice of drink for these young people to get fucked up.

These things must be becoming popular...even Bill Maher did a bit on them last night.

Yeah, these were a big deal about 6-9 months ago here. The professors are just now catching on to them, some are violently opposed, but they're so far behind the curve it doesn't matter. Besides, it makes so little sense to be opposed to these and not any other form of recreational mindbending that they just look stupid.

I'm with ya there inVersed.

we played a festival yesterday, and these girls were hanging out backstage with us and a few other bands. they thought they were all cool because they had fours and were wasted. they just could not stop talking about how good their fours were.
lucky for us, we were sitting under an oak tree collecting acorns for about half an hour. no real reason, just random stupid band guy competition thing.
but thank god those girls showed up, because they were by far the funnest targets we've ever thrown anything at in our lives.

story kind of makes no sense, but it was entertaining at the time.


FOUr LOKOz 4 LYFE BRO \m/ \m/ fist PUMP BRO

Ok understood, you don't like the stuff
But using these girls as an example is just ignorant because those particular girls would've been the same way even if they were drinking liquor

Nobody I drink with is like '4 loko yah, yah, 4 life '. We drink them because if you can deal with the taste it gives a nice buzz from drinking only one cheap can

Pretty much what I'm trying to say is you just told a story about dumb drunk girls not Four Loko
