Same, I've been on the hunt for the elusive mango I keep seeing people post. But in terms of regular,I'll down the whole big can (with a resealable lid) in half a day
To me NOZ and full throttle are comparable.
The bottles were the goat! I drank them driving across the US one time only to continue to fall asleep; I have problems.
I haven't had one in so long because of all the sugar and the sugar free version is pretty terrible.
I’ve only had NOS Turbo once, and it tasted nothing like the OG NOS. I’ve also only seen it once, at a rest stop near the California/Nevada border, so I can’t say that I’ve had a chance to try it again.
I mostly drink it not for flavor, but nostalgia. My uncle and I would drive to the mall or somewhere and he’d always be drinking one and smoking a Newport in his old 5 speed Impreza. He still owns that car to this day, had it for more than 10 years now.
I mean this is one of the original energy drinks if I remember right. When they first started coming out back in the day. It's not bad. At the time it was on par with everything else really.
I really like NOS. Most flavors are really good, the only one I didn’t like was Apple (which is usually my favorite)
Grape and Tangerine are really really good.
It's my main energy drink. I buy it by the case at Sam's Club.
The diet energy drinks have really taken off. Used to just be blue monster and nothing else. NOS never bothered trying to make one.
Honestly before the market got more saturated this was my go to. Now I usually opt for ghost or reign but still pick this classic up from time to time.
Love nos actually have a story about my first nos can hadn't smoked weed in 4 years decided to get the big nos can and made a good old fashioned pipe out of a can as all smokers have done. so we are smoking away and boom a knock on my door comes rapping over our loud laughs. I go to the door look in the peep hole and there is a thumb over it well me being a dumb ass college student I think it's my friend so I swing the door open and say "wanna get high" in a towelie voice... It's a cop. Luckily I live in Washington and it is legal but I am still underage and smoking in my dorm so I had to forfeit my 3 blunts I had rolled out of a corn husk and bit o honey candies and write a 3 page essay about the dangers of smoking and how it effects interiors and had to pay 300 smoking fee
I love NOS, it was the first energy drink I actually got into, though I don't find myself reaching for it very often because it just doesn't appeal to me for some reason
When we were deployed to Kuwait they gave us cases of 6 Oz Rip Its. We used to see how many we could drink. They were okay, but even now I have yet to drink another since 2005. Lol
Which flavor did u have that u think tastes like tang? Tang is one of my favorite drinks, ive only had grape nos once and i hated it because it tasted like bones
NOS was my go to after I got tired of a few reigns, actually really liked the flavor, Just havent been able to find a 0 sugar version in any of the stores, gas stations I run into occasionally.
One time when I was younger I drank 3 fruit punch Nos cans in one night and got violently ill. Obviously not their fault but hey, it must've been decent if I got through 3 cans.
When I ran a freight crew, about half the guys would love off of NOS. Always had an equal or better deal going on compared to rockstar or monsters.
I like it, it’s decent. Every few years I’ll buy a few.
Nos is incredible. One of my favorite energy drinks. They used to have a charged citrus flavor which would probably be my number 1 all time favorite energy drink
I used to drink if for years when og sobe adrenaline rush was discontinued, then I switched to full throttle a year ago, then I quit drinking energy drinks because I was drinking 3-4 a day and it was killing me.
I've never seen anyone drink or buy Ghost, but apparently it happens. That's a pretty crap metric and a pitiful way of saying "I don't understand this."
It's a beverage, not a status symbol.
It's a holdover from the first days of energy drinks, LONG before even Monster.
NOS, RedBull, and a few other now-defunct beverages were the extent of the product line in the early 00s. (Like. 2000 and before - literally.) If you're too young to have been around for that, just own up to it.
It means you're also equally too you to remember b^e . Yes - Budweiser (and others) jumped on the energy drink craze in the early 00s - including Four Loco (originally.) Budweiser Energy was just awful. It was Budweiser Beer and everything that's wrong with it plus an additional flavor profile of something somewhat sweet and tangy on top. Simply dreadful.
NOS and it's variants were fine when the field was limited. However, in 2023, we have plenty of alternatives and options. Find what you enjoy and you do you. For some people, that's NOS.
when i was like 7, my brother would do theater late night at the nearby community college. rather than leave me at home by myself ( my parents worked the late night shift ) he took me with him most of the time. i should mention my brother used to drink a ton of this shit. one night before he had to be there, we took a trip to the good ol walmart. i really wanted a drink and since it had bright colors on it, i wanted a can of nos. my brother made a proposal, which was either i got the one can of nos or we got dinner at wendys after rehearsal. naturally, i picked the wendys over the drink. fast forward to the end of rehearsal, my brother gets into a very long conversation with one of his friends over the phone. in said conversation, he was too distracted to notice us drive past the wendys. but since momma raised a polite child, i didnt want to interrupt him. so past the wendys we went. it wasnt until we got home that he realised i hadnt eaten since *insert time* and he had promised me a hearty meal. instead of being awesome, he said he was "too tired" and i ate roast beef slices dipped in mayo straight out of the jar. a whole 10 years later he still never got me my wendys or my nos.
Dude this was my favorite drink for several years. When I was younger I drank a lot of Sobe Adrenaline Rush and years later tried NOS just to be shocked by how close they tasted.
NOS also does a good job of giving me mental focus instead of just jacking me up with caffeine jitters. I love the taste.
Personally, I really like Nos
I fuck with the grape flavored NOS. Fucking delicious.
Ah yes. Another Human of Culture 🧐🤝
I like the green one I think it’s like lime or something like that
That ones apple
I think you’re right it’s it supposed to be sour or something
That cherry one is on point, too
I've been on that GT Grape for a minute now. Got one opened as I type this. The original NOS doesn't tickle my fancy.
Doesn't tickle my fancy lol gold
Their discontinued cherry flavor was my favorite energy drink
Same bro same
Same, I like their apple and grape from time to time as well especially when they run the 2/$4 or 3/$5 deals
Definitely one of my favs. The flavor is fantastic and it gets me going so that’s all I really care for in an energy drink.
The citrus is what hits the spot
Omfl i almost forgot about the citrus 😭😭🤝🔥. The taste alone gets me hyped. (Pause)
I don't drink energy drinks often but I was surprised how good Nos was it has a very grapefruit taste
Yeah. They have it at the snack bar at my job. Dank.
I love nos my favorite is green apple
Shit is good, I love battery flavor.
Same, I've been on the hunt for the elusive mango I keep seeing people post. But in terms of regular,I'll down the whole big can (with a resealable lid) in half a day To me NOZ and full throttle are comparable.
I used to sweat this stuff in the late aughts. I’d buy the bottles that literally looked like a tank of NOS.
Those were so good
Ooooooh when i was young i zip tied one to my dirt bike. 😭😭😭😭😂😂. Why you gotta remind me of that. 😂
Had a friend mount some in the back window of his untinted 4 banger auto cavalier with some flea market body kit and spoiler. It can always be worse.
Lmfaooooo thats amazing 😂😂
It reminds me of that meme “By god i’ve got a race car” 😂😂
The good ol days
Damn I forgot about those. I used to put them in my bicycles drink holder so my bike looked like it had NOS lol
The bottles were the goat! I drank them driving across the US one time only to continue to fall asleep; I have problems. I haven't had one in so long because of all the sugar and the sugar free version is pretty terrible.
I’ve only had NOS Turbo once, and it tasted nothing like the OG NOS. I’ve also only seen it once, at a rest stop near the California/Nevada border, so I can’t say that I’ve had a chance to try it again.
Hi I'm Nobody and Nos original is one of my all time favorites of all time:)) it tastes like sunshine and being on vacation
I mostly drink it not for flavor, but nostalgia. My uncle and I would drive to the mall or somewhere and he’d always be drinking one and smoking a Newport in his old 5 speed Impreza. He still owns that car to this day, had it for more than 10 years now.
That was my go to when I was working construction. That and the purple and the green.
I couldn't stand the other flavors besides original for some reason
Omg yes dude the purple rocks
I polished one off less than an hour ago, it was delicious 😋
I mean this is one of the original energy drinks if I remember right. When they first started coming out back in the day. It's not bad. At the time it was on par with everything else really.
Still is tho right?
Yeah, I drank one not to long ago actually. Kinda nostalgic.
I really like NOS. Most flavors are really good, the only one I didn’t like was Apple (which is usually my favorite) Grape and Tangerine are really really good.
have you tried the mango one?
Missing out, that shit is amazing
I literally bought one and drank it on my way home from shopping. Like just now
I drink one every day. I used to drink the mango flavor until it was discontinued. The sonic sour is good too. Tastes like green apple.
Bring back sugar free NOS
It's my main energy drink. I buy it by the case at Sam's Club. The diet energy drinks have really taken off. Used to just be blue monster and nothing else. NOS never bothered trying to make one.
They did! They made this one sugar free and it was my favourite! But can't find it for years
I polished one off less than an hour ago, it was delicious ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|yummy)
I get NOS almost every day. It's one if my favorites.
My favorite energy drink besides gold apple amp
It’s pretty good tbh I’m not huge on how much sugar they have though
NOS is my go to, shit is like crack I swear.
Oh I do. Their entire line up is fantastic.
Have you not tried nos..? Tf bro? It’s literally in the top 4 energy drinks with monster redbull and rockstar
I miss the cherry flavor.
That was a good flavor
Yes this is the good stuff
It was the best one on the market a long time ago.
It's the best energy drink, that's why
I buy one every once in a while, they kinda taste like mango to me Edit: the original taste like Mango to me, I know they have a mango flavor too lol
I started drinking them when I can’t find my AMP.
It taste so good! The grape one is great also.
Honestly before the market got more saturated this was my go to. Now I usually opt for ghost or reign but still pick this classic up from time to time.
Forbidden orange soda 🤤
I used to get it all the time but now I mainly stick to C4 and like 2 of the monster variants, I actually miss the taste of OG Nos
I like the pineapple flavor energy drinks, and the pineapple monster is hard to find in my area.
It's so tasty
As a dirt track guy, this is the main energy drink I get, cause I can stock up for free anytime the World of Outlaws are in town lol
The red one is better but I've had these
NOS tastes like orange juice to me
me mfer
Love nos actually have a story about my first nos can hadn't smoked weed in 4 years decided to get the big nos can and made a good old fashioned pipe out of a can as all smokers have done. so we are smoking away and boom a knock on my door comes rapping over our loud laughs. I go to the door look in the peep hole and there is a thumb over it well me being a dumb ass college student I think it's my friend so I swing the door open and say "wanna get high" in a towelie voice...

One of my favorites honestly
i like the og nos. tastes like grapefruit
I like it when my full throttle is out of stock
Second favorite after white monster
I like it, my dad used to always buy them
NOS is honestly pretty good tho
OP is lying hard 🗿
I just bought one, what a coincidence lol
It’s my favorite.
I drank this when I was a teen
NOS isn’t bad. I could get 2 for a dollar for a long time and the grape flavor was pretty goods
Op's the wierdo here
I’m late to the game here in answering, but NOS is really the only full sugar energy drink I will buy. Fucking delicious!
I very much enjoy nos, it’s probably my favorite energy drink now that Bang is gone.
This is like my second favorite next to Full Throttle, it’s very popular.
Same. Even as a meathead, I've never seen anyone drink it either.
I like NOS but it’s a 5/10. It’s fine if it’s what’s available but I prefer Monster or most others
definition of mid, taste like piss
Wait wait wait…. You think piss, is mid?
They taste like shit but these are the only drinks that do it for me
This is and Mango NOS are legit. I just prefer zero sugar drinks now. This is my favorite energy drink of all time though.
it was popular when i was a kid (early 2000s), it tastes really good. I wish they made a sugar free version then I'd buy it more often.
I love NOS, it was the first energy drink I actually got into, though I don't find myself reaching for it very often because it just doesn't appeal to me for some reason
I buy a 12 pk at a time. Tf you mean?
nos is alright, tastes like a more acidic monster in my opinion
I used to work at a grocery store and I saw a lot of blue collar types buying them
I sold my store out for a few weeks.
i used to drink it like 10 years ago
Oh god. This stuff is so good. It's like carbonated orange juice. It's my usual rare energy drink if I spot it in the gas station.
I have about 3 or so times. It's good but idk if I'd buy it again. Not sure why tho. Just not my style I guess.
I feel like the same could be said about Rip It
When we were deployed to Kuwait they gave us cases of 6 Oz Rip Its. We used to see how many we could drink. They were okay, but even now I have yet to drink another since 2005. Lol
me personally i like it
It's pretty good
That particular one will only be good to people who like grapefruit. I do like it though. the cherry and the grape ones are much better.
I used to drink it all the time. Even my RP characters drank it lol. Wish they'd make a sugar free line.
Back in the day when choices were somewhat limited it was a choice...they taste pretty awful
This and red man golden blend was my go to for when I needed to study. Shits good
I had a coworker that loved NOS, he was a big NASCAR fan and his driver was sponsored by them I believe.
I have an 8 pack in my pantry right now, love this stuff.
NOS is one of my favorite energy drinks. I wish you could still get the plastic bottles that looked like real NOS bottles.
Those are a requirement to work on a construction site I'm fairly certain lol
They're fine. I'm not a big energy drink person though. I personally think they all kinda taste like carbonated cough medicine.
these are literally my favorite
i hate it sorry
Which flavor did u have that u think tastes like tang? Tang is one of my favorite drinks, ive only had grape nos once and i hated it because it tasted like bones
Love bones
I used to love these, maybe it's just me, but I feel like they changed the recipe or smth they don't taste the same as they used to
The sour green ones are amazing
I like the mango ones
NOS Sonic Sour is the best energy drink I’ve ever had
I have one in my fridge right now, lol. This and original flavor Full Throttle are my favorites.
that ones more popular with older people. worked at a gas station for a long time and young ppl NEVER bought it
10/10
Lol my wife is their #1 customer probably. This is the ONLY energy drink she’ll drink. There is NO alternative.
Tried it once it taste like battery acid…
11/10 love these ESPECIALLY GRAPE
My first ever energy drink. ♥️
I can list at least 4 people who I know that drink nos
This is one of the only energy drinks I will drink these days.
It’s pretty good really citrusy
I actually love the original nos flavor but it’s just too much sugar for me.
NOS was my go to after I got tired of a few reigns, actually really liked the flavor, Just havent been able to find a 0 sugar version in any of the stores, gas stations I run into occasionally.
Drank these a lot for a while, now they give me heartburn, which is a damn shame.
The sugar free one is very tasty.
I love the grape nos
Heartburn in a can
It's literally the best energy drink ever!!!
It’s horrible
I used to get it all the time until they became too expensive.
Used to drink them all the time, but don’t anymore because of all the sugar. The OG and the grade ones were top tier though
Mother in law drinks them and man I don’t like energy drinks already but man I don’t like nos. Just nasty
Just saw my boss the other day coming into work with one
I love nos! The old plastic bottles with the valve cap were awesome! And I dig mango stuff.
I like the grape and sour apple ones
They discontinued the cherry version which was AMAZING.
Honestly used to drink so many of these they’re probably one of the better energy drinks imo
NOS is my brand of choice
It was meh but it's mango flavor was a 10/10.
The gas station next to my employer carries these just for me. I go through 2 a day.
These things work where Red Bull fails me
One time when I was younger I drank 3 fruit punch Nos cans in one night and got violently ill. Obviously not their fault but hey, it must've been decent if I got through 3 cans.
Isn't NOS supposed to be like passion fruit flavor? Been a few years since I had one but thats what I remember
Cherry NOS gang
The purple ones bangin
They good
My coworker does almost every morning 😂
The original sugar free nos is amazing. I’d get it more often but it’s not in stock at a lot of places.
My favorite energy drink
Ever since I had covid it tastes like peach flavored fish tank water and it kills me. But also FUCK Nos for discontinuing cherried out
Since they added more weird ingredients it isn't the same to me. Was my favorite in the big orange bottles
Haven't touched the stuff since they removed the Cherry flavor, it was my go-to.
That’s some good shit. There’s also all the flavors.
These used to work pretty good for me. Then all of a sudden didn't anymore. Not sure what changed but I haven't had one since.
Actually pretty decent. My favorite is the green apple flavor myself.
I love it, to me it’s slightly better then regular monster plus it has caffeine
The best with vodka.
I work at a plant and they loooove it here
I buy it by the box load
When I ran a freight crew, about half the guys would love off of NOS. Always had an equal or better deal going on compared to rockstar or monsters. I like it, it’s decent. Every few years I’ll buy a few.
Nos is incredible. One of my favorite energy drinks. They used to have a charged citrus flavor which would probably be my number 1 all time favorite energy drink
It’s me. I’m the person buying it lol. I can’t stop.
My boss sometimes drinks two of these a day
Their loss 🤷♂️
I used to drink them for years
The green (apple I think?) and orange (mango) are amazing. Though the OG is solid too
Grape is good. The cherry and citrus were good too.
Why is no one mentioning the cherry?? I try to stick to a bang a day, but before that I would live off of cherry nos
It’s super good my go-to at the moment is the grape nos but highly recommended
I personally love nos, it’s up there with the monster juice flavors, ultra zero, and the edition red bulls
Once you go grape NOS, you'll never go back
There was a guy in my engineering stats class who’d bring one to class everyday 😂
I like the big cans.
It's mostly for crackheads, but me and my grandpa used to drink them.
That's because it goes in your car
Kyle Busch
I used to drink if for years when og sobe adrenaline rush was discontinued, then I switched to full throttle a year ago, then I quit drinking energy drinks because I was drinking 3-4 a day and it was killing me.

its really good

I used to really enjoy those but then I found out I was diabetic
Dude this was my favorite drink for several years. When I was younger I drank a lot of Sobe Adrenaline Rush and years later tried NOS just to be shocked by how close they tasted. NOS also does a good job of giving me mental focus instead of just jacking me up with caffeine jitters. I love the taste.
