WOW, That wuz weird I had just posted that other post when i heard sum thin out front, went to go check it out and see the big Brown turning the corner and there wuz my package. Would like to say a big thanx to
LifterGuy33 for the great hook up, on the replacement of the 2 grapes with blue razz, and watemelon kiwi, both of which taste absouletly nothing like the grapes I had.

I would have been happy with just that, but I also recieved a very nice t shirt and a jug of LG's Postal:bigeyes: ,which wuz way above and beyond.


Thanx again Lifterguy33, and reps to ya
Word!!!

Heres my view my man, and this is ~LG33's~ thoughts.., and by no means is this from a LG rep stand point, bottom line is I wont piss on your leg and tell you its raining outside..:lol:.. I personally don't see a problem with them, Ive been using them since they came out, so I'm pretty sure I have gone through all the batch's.. now they did go through an overhaul, and I seen a slight flavor change, a little less grape flavor; but i just add an extra scoop or two per 12-14 oz of water so maybe around 16-17g's total...

When did you purchase them?

I recently took advantage of the $11.99 sale on LG's BCAA+EAA. When I opened the container yesterday they smell just like any other grape supplement I have had and I was excited to try them. Upon mixing they were a gray color to match the gray color they were in the container. Upon taking my first sip I was really surprised, very little grape and a bad chemical taste/after taste. Is this how they are supposed to be as it is my first time with this brand? It is one thing for something to taste bad if you're taking it quick but I don't know if I can sip this stuff intra workout repeatedly. I bought a few because LG is a great company but I may eat the cost if this is the case. Anyone else have this experience or did I just catch a bad batch?
Honestly, for 11.99 you shouldn't be b!tching about the flavor. We use this stuff for function....not for flavor. Man up.

I seriously put 3 scoops in a water bottle took 1 sit and spit it out it also had a weird very light blue/gray color, I have never spit out anything in my life, I'm not really picky, I can't even explain the flavor!! I thought it was the water, like it was sewer water but i tasted the water without it and it was fine.. I'm afraid to even taste test it again, but I will..sometime because I love LG science, not bashing you guys at all, maybe its just the grape! Considering I got it for free from bodybuilding.com for buying your awesome ASGT! :)

but I do know the purple wraath from controlled labs did taste better, but maybe that was because it was a different amount of serving.
Where did you guy buy it and when? Also @ Roguearthur..you dont have to post everywhere " Im not bashing you guys".. one post or a PM does the trick in the end;)

This might explain something... Mine says 1030 5/12. I'm drinking it now, its drinkable but no flavor, at all... Just a weird taste
I don't understand, you first say you had to spit it out because it wasn't drinkable and it tasted like sewer water, now your saying its drinkable??
LG's BC+eaa's is one of the highest selling aminos out there today due to the profile and cost..

I'm not disagreeing with you, but I drink this stuff daily. And I'll be the first to tell you I haven't had a problem.. but I am waiting on word as we speak!

I think that the Grape is just not to everyone's taste preferences. Some people like me really like it, others have said they didn't. Try a different flavor if the grape isn't for you, I really like the Blue Razz flavor, it's a bit sweeter than the grape.

dirty said the other one tasted better, so obviously I might have the same problem as him.. I was sipping on it because I want the amino acids.. I got half way through it and stopped, its majorly diluted too..

So fine to correct my old post, it still doesn't have flavor but the taste is not only weird, its terrible. and when i said it has no taste, as in no flavor, no grape, its just a WEIRD taste that I can taste in the back of my throat. (sorry, I guess weird wasn't good enough to say after I already said it was bad..)

Yea, I just don't think it's a bad batch... I think some people just aren't feeling the grape flavor.

Have you ever had a bad batch of BCAA's before? Or ever tried bulk BCAA's? I have had a bad bulk batch of BCAA's and the stuff is horrendous tasting... nowhere near the taste of the grape BC+EAA.

I will buy the kiwi sometime in the future when I realize how important this supplement really is, I love the sound of the flavor!
I know it just has to be the grape, or the batch.. I don't know or care which it is, it just has no flavor. I heard it had a like grape big league chew flavor or something like that, but that might of been the old grape? (I heard it was changed?) Oh well, I'm not a huge grape fan in general!
When i buy a new one, I know I can't make any excuses if it tastes bad besides I'm a baby!!

Also, keep me informed if you do find out anything, which if nothing was released about it, probably nothing more will be.. thats what I get for relying on a product bodybuilding is giving away for free! lol

I have the same problem with a blue rasberry container. Smells like blue rasberry with a harsh chemical smell, then it just tastes like chemicals and dilute splenda. No blue rasberry taste, but im just flavoring with citrus dew from NP

Honestly, for 11.99 you shouldn't be b!tching about the flavor. We use this stuff for function....not for flavor. Man up.
Hate to quote myself....I find it very hard to believe that people are still complaining about taste.

Then obviously you are tasting a different taste. Man up, and stop thinking you are obviously right. They wouldn't say this is grape flavor that I have considering if anything its unflavored, the color isn't even grape, its a super light bland blue, resembles a gray almost.

Mine was the exact same way...and you don't hear me complaining about it. Yeah the taste isn't that great....but something has to suffer somewhere in the product. You've got a great profile for a great price. It's logical that the flavor isn't going to be that great. I've tried them all and the flavor is sub-par...but it's also the BEST powered amino profile i've found for the price.

and if you want to continue being a d!ckhead... then head over to bb.com and flame away
