As being a liquor store owner here in Maryland.... When four loko was pulled and then re-released... Minus the caffeine. The sales were never the same... I went from selling 30-35 cases a week.. To 5 cases.. And it's slowly dying...

Yes it does... Called sugar! There is no caffeine in it... All alcoholic drinks with caffeine in it have been banned... At least here in Maryland...

Sparks, AM, joose, 808, core, loko all have been pulled... Only to be re-release when the caffeine is removed...

Just beware of what you are dealing with. Alcohol is cunning, baffling, and powerful. Please drink responsibly.

No, they nearly killed themselves drinking irresponsibly. When will we start accepting responsibility for our own actions in this country? Bartenders have been making alcoholic energy drinks for ages.

It's 24oz compared to a 12oz beer can, and also contains 3x as much alcohol. If you drink an entire can it's like drinking a 6 pack. It's 6x more potent than a 12oz beer. Now imagine someone drinking a 6 pack in 2 minutes. That's just pure stupid. If weed was legalized we wouldn't have this problem.

Four Loko, before they banned it and redid the formula was pretty rough. one 24oz can contained 6 standard drinks of alcohol and 5 cups of coffee.
