Title: Re: redbull monster Post by: Woodsey on March 18, 2012, 12:53:40 AM BANGKOK — Billionaire Chaleo Yoovidhya, the co-founder of energy drink Red Bull and the second richest man in Thailand, died Saturday at the age of 89, a company spokeswoman said.
Chaleo was Thailand's second richest man, with a fortune of $5 billion last year according to business magazine Forbes, having fallen from the top spot on its annual list which he held in 2009. According to local reports he was born into a poor Sino-Thai family in the northern province of Phichit who made their living from duck farming and fruit trading. Chaleo moved to Bangkok to help his brother in his drug store before becoming a salesman and later set up his own pharmaceutical factory in the old quarter of Bangkok. His TC Pharmaceuticals produced a "tonic drink" called Krating Daeng ("Red Bull") which was popular with factory shift workers and truck drivers and provided the inspiration for the international beverage. In 1984 Chaleo founded Red Bull with Austrian marketing whiz Dietrich Mateschitz, who had become aware of "tonic drinks" while travelling in Asia, and they started selling the drink in Austria in 1987. According to the company website, Mateschitz got the idea for the business while sitting at the bar in the Mandarin Hotel in Hong Kong in 1982. The pair each owned 49 percent of the company, with Chaleo's son Chalerm holding the remaining two percent. The drink, which was produced in Chaleo's factory, is now sold in more than 70 countries worldwide. Chaleo married twice and has 11 children, five from his first wife and six from his second. Apart from its energy drink business, Red Bull also owns two football teams, Red Bull Salzburg in Austria and the New York Red Bulls in the United States, and a Formula One stable of the same name. Chaleo's family were due to start week-long traditional Buddhist rites at a monastery west of Bangkok, a temple worker said.

Title: Re: redbull monster Post by: Marky147 on March 18, 2012, 02:12:10 AM Should change the slogan to 'Redbull gives you heartburn'
Only time I drink Redbull is when I'm on the Jaegerbus!!! Title: Re: redbull monster Post by: smashedagain on March 18, 2012, 02:59:35 AM Relentless is my favourite. I actually like the taste of it. Big +1 here although I prefer relentless juiced which is half orange juice. Sometimes will have a redbull and fresh orange in a pint glass.

A few years ago they tried pushing it as a mixer, definitely remember seeing it 'on tap' in a few places. Haven't seen it anywhere for a while though so I guess it didn't catch on. Funny that. Title: Re: redbull monster Post by: leethefish on March 18, 2012, 09:04:02 AM i am a nit ................

I had a couple of these, neat (supposed to be a mixer), after a sleepless night at GCBPT Leeds a few years back and I was off my tits for about 8 hours solid, awesome stuff. Title: Re: redbull monster Post by: kinboshi on March 18, 2012, 09:42:19 AM I remember drinking a tonic drink in Japan called 'Toughman'. Comes in small bottles and tasted lovely. The logo on the bottle was a symbolic pair of testicles. Went to find an image of the bottle, and found this instead.
