Ok so thanks to RR and CL for hooking me up with a tub of Golden Gains - apple pie flavor and heres my initial thoughts...


opened up the tub, smelt like some chemically apple flavor / almost cinammony and its a golden yellowish powder.

so had it today and must say its quite tasty! it has a tart apple taste, almost reminds me of the CL green mag apple flavor. its pretty tart but than its also really sweet like someone dumped some sugar / splenda in there. I mixed it with ~10oz of water or so in a shaker cup and it mixed up really fast / smooth.

seemed to be a thicker type shake but i liked it. was a little overwhelming w the flavor being really tart and sugary. overhwelming as in unique, its not bad by any means its rather tasty.


im not lifting tomorrow but next time I do ill add some icecubs n make a smoothie thing outta it and than maybe add milk?

Ill update this review with new ideas n such until the jug is gone, if anyone has questions or suggestions just lemme know ;)

No wonder the taste was strong, you only used 10oz of water!!! I would use at least 16oz, that's a water bottle anyway which isn't alot. If you use more water, you'll find the taste is much more pleasant. :)

ok ive used this 2 more times...


did the 16oz of water or whatever it was a lot of water.

tasted much more normal, not intense was a little "gritty" feeling tho but got mixed instantly?

for fun i did 5oz of water + 1 scoop chocoalte whey... jesus christ lol! very very strong and "chalky" feeling to it.


but just mix it w lot / moderate water and it tastes good! I think im gonna try it with milk next than icecubs like a smoothie.


um as far as the recovery on this product i cant comment to much, im eating like a horse and than some more so doms are pretty much non exsistant. I do look forward to drinking this tho, its tasty :)

w ice cubes grinded up like a smoothie it pretty good!! kinda reminds me of a apple flavored malt or ice cream thinger.

ive only gotten stomach discomfort once since ive used it and it wasnt bad at all. no gas / bloating / other issues that i can think of. pretty solid thus far
