Monster ‘BFC’ It’s. Big (Like, Really BIG.)
You may have heard our energy drink reviews podcast (continued as a blog post) and remember the combative history of 8-ounce Red Bull cans that accompanied it. It was tiny, portable, and packed enough punch to get you through the day. Over time, however, someone decided to switch it up, and now the cans were 16 ounces instead of just one. Excellent — double the load for free. Then, the 24 oz energy drink can. Yes, it’s slightly absurd, but you’ve got to have that extra super-duper boost sometimes, and a 24-ounce can is always good for a grin.
Next, we had the 32-ounce Monster BFC — the largest stinkin’ can ever.
The Monster BFC Experience
My hands are huge, and that Monster BFC makes my paws look tiny. What the can side says:
“Yeah, you know what…- ‘BFC’ You should not attempt to chug this! (You have the right, but please refrain.) Take it easy and grab the Biggest, biggest energy Drink known to man! Inside the largest effect can, we could find No wimps, no health nuts, and by golly, do not show up here with the time excuse. Serving Suggestion: 1 Big Can per day.
(Also reading a curl aluminum font after the fact in this super weird random capitalization aside, which makes no sense)ANYWAY, Weniger hasen: never – ever have I seen an 8-ounce can of beer of this summer size Perhaps not exactly new for beach town Alexandria, Minnesota, where I went to a local gas station that was asking $3.99 for it, but wow,!
A Chat at the Gas Station
It went down like this when I asked the clerk:
How long has this been available on the market? Clerk: Oh, a while. Like six months. Customer with turtle neck tattoo: Nah, like two years! Clerk: Oh, we just started stocking it about six months ago. Me: Never seen such a big can of Red Bull. Manager: It needs to be stocked everywhere. No, there is not a great deal of call for this – it’s one you could argue, sure. No call for it in any way. Me and you are the only mugs that have ever bought one. The customer has a tattoo on his neck; I just got one yesterday.
And there you have it — Monster BFC. Two flavors, the regular for $3.99 and a disturbing “lo-carb” found at hardly any locations. And I will say this: please do NOT drink an energy drink of this size unless you mean to take your time… A few hours ago — six or so by now, I wrapped this can up, and my ass is still jumpy in the wrong kind of agitated way. Also, my stomach hurts.
The Sheer Size of Monster BFC
Energy drink experiences don’t get any better than Monster BFC. Now, think of a Coke can that is larger than your brain. It serves as a great conversation piece, a fun party trick, and a complete caffeine overload all at once. Also, parked next to a tire, a few pennies, and what appears to be some thick breath mint, the large-size Monster BFC is even more apparent. The energy drink equivalent of a Hummer — larger than life with no subtlety.
What Does the Monster BFC Contain?
The Monster BFC is in the same high-octane energy blend that made Monster so popular. But if you have 32 ounces to sip on, this is a lot of caffeine, taurine, and ginseng with your b vitamins. It works for those days you need to get stuff done, have a late night of gaming ahead, or one-up your mates with the most batshit drink in the room.
The Market for Monster BFC
That size is rare, however. There’s only a little call for it, as the guy at the gas station put it. A niche product for a particular breed of energy drink lovers or anyone looking to challenge the rest with their consumption size is the best way to describe this. This novelty is your best way of attempting it because you would not want to drink this every day.
Nursing a Monster BFC
If you dare to take on a Monster BFC, remember that slow and steady wins the race. This is not a chugging drink; it’s for savoring. The label also warns that it “is” not to be consumed in big swigs”.” Stop struggling, sit back, and enjoy the ride. Take it with you and drink it throughout the day by slowly allowing that energy boost to kick in. SPOILER ALERT-as in, trust me, you do not want to drink this whole can at once per the warning against finishing it #doubletime / Screenshot by Madeleine Burry
