Packaging:6
Go really needs to work on their design. The actual package for the gummies is great - they come in these little blister packs that have enough air in them to keep the treats from getting gooey and sticking to the side. I is also foil wrapped, so leaving them out in the sun wont get them to melting temps as quickly. Functionally it also did well, listing the caffeine content as well as all the other ingredients in a nice easy to read fashion.
Unfortunately, the actual design is a mess. Part of this problem come from the logo - which makes the whole thing look a little cheap and sketchy and he choice of the non-color scheme ( the package is basically a 2 color process, just blue and white). t is hard enough getting a good design to print on a foil wrap , and it is even harder when it is left on the naked uncolored foil. Unfortunately, this design was a total miss. There is supposedly two servings in a pack too ( as there are two gummies), but it is nearly impossible to save one until later - as the package doe not fold or close easily. Like 16 ounce 2 serving drinks, you aren't fooling anybody. Having half his gummy package is like drinking half a Monster - its not going to happen.
Taste:8
As I mentioned in my review of Loud Truck Gummies, gummy treats usually don't provide quite enough sweetness or gooeyness for me to really enjoy. They are one of only two things in the world I can not really get into (the second are Twizzlers and other big corporate made licorice treats). Go Gummies are a million times better than your average convenience store gummy worm - reminding me much more of those fruit slice gummies - sweet and tart, and then the coating of sugar puts it over the top in terms of flavor. Go did a fantastic job coming up with a unique taste.
My only critique is that there is quite a lot of underlying bitter medicinal flavor once the sugar coating is gone. For a quick bit you can not really taste it, but if you savor the flavor you can really taste the bitterness. A coworker (read guinea pig) thought it started great but ended up like cough medicine the more he sucked it. The problem is all the vitamin B - as it is a very bitter medicinal flavor and without the sugar coating to mask it you can definitely be overwhelmed by the harshness.
Buzz:9
Go Gummies are a great way to get yourself a bit more alert - quick and easy with no mess or spilling possible. There are two gummies inside of the package, each containing 100mg of caffeine. Basically, both gummies will give you a very nice 200mg boost - about the same amount you would find in two cups of coffee - or a bit more juice than you would get in a Monster. Besides the caffeine, Go has a few other nice energy standards, such as taurine (100MG), Carnitine (25mg) some vitamin b complex and even a decent amount of vitamin C to boot.
The other ingredients are about what you would expect - the sweetener is glucose and sugar, and the calorie count is very low as well. I can see his working great for long road trips, taking on hikes, and other times a can would be annoying, not to mention dealing with all that sloshing around inside you. If you are a fan of the gummy food group and need a nice buzz along with your candy, this is a great gummy to try.
