Oh Coca-Cola Blak, thou art shameful! In thy miniature bottle shaped like a “classic Coke-bottle,” with the cryptic title “fusion beverage” on the side, thou art most misleading. For 10 ounces of this mystery liquid did I pay $1.39. And lo! I didst find Coca-Cola Blak to consist of coffee-flavored Coke!
Yea, it doth say on side of thy bottle, oh Coca-Cola Blak, that thine ingredients include “coffee extract,” yet nowhere does it say you taste like UTTER SWILL.
I go forth into the world, Coca Cola Blak, sorrowing at the knowledge that other chumps might fall for your cute bottle and non-descript description! Damn you, Coca-Cola Blak! Damn you to HELL!
I just had one yesterday. It is quite good. My only complaint is that they had tied into the extreme drink business and can charge 1.40 for a small bottle.
You are obviously insane. Get help immediately.
Anybody want a rim job?
You didn’t know it was supposed to taste like coffee? Maybe it’s a regional thing. I’ve seen ads that coke was going to make a coffee/coke combo for ages. I like it, the aftertaste is a bit like burnt marshmallow. Mmm!
You think that’s bad? I once had the misfortune to try a coffee-flavored beer.
Puke smiley, need puke smiley…
“Blak!” was the sound I made after trying it. It was a combination of gagging and trying to chew off my own tongue.
Interesting. This stuff is one of the very few weird new beverages (actually the only one) that I quite like. I can’t stand the taste of energy drinks, especially Red Bull (it tastes like somebody melted a whole handful of SweeTarts in a glass of carbonated water) but Coke Blak is tasty. The oddest thing about it is that I normally can’t stand coffee and I was prepared to hate this stuff, but the combination of the Coke and the coffee flavors works for me.
The boyfriend got a bottle and hated it, and then made me try it- I didn’t like it (as in I would definitely never pay $1.50 for it) but I didn’t hate it either. It has a weird, but not completely unpleasant taste. I can imagine it being awful if you didn’t realize it was supposed to be coffee-flavored coke though.
My father is actually developing the bottles for this beverage so Coke gave my parents an enormous supply of this stuff.
It’s, err, sitting around.
I don’t hate it, I don’t love it. It takes exactly like coke mixed with cheap coffee. Nothing more, nothing less.
Wow, that’s a shame…I’ve made a really tasty Coffee Stout in the past, and gotten raves on it!
Well, maybe it would work with a stout, given the, er, stout flavor of that variety. I think (this was several years ago, so the details are sketchy) it was a lager. In fact, I believe it had a picture of a gorilla on the label, might have been called Silverback, I dunno, and it was a sample the guy at the liquor store gave me to try. He knew how much I liked microbrews and wanted an opinion before he invested in stocking it.
He got an earful. 
Absolutely…coffee in a stout or porter is a delicious enhancement to a beer that already has a good bit of roastiness in it. In a pale lager…shudder, I’d have to agree with you. I don’t even know if coffee would work in a dopplebock.
Coke good…coffee great…Coca-Cola Blak awesome!
I’m just waiting for the nirvana of having beer added to the mix. I’d never need anything else to drink.
You spit it in his ear? Not very ladylike.
Coffe stouts rule.
Hey, my self-protective reflexes are fast, pal.
I luuuuuurve Coke Blak. As a college student, I live off this stuff. Delicious caffeine = papers get written = yay!
The thing that irritates me is the diacritical mark (macron?) above the A. As I learned so many years ago, it makes the pronunciation sound like ‘Blake’. That I just don’t agree with.
As for the OP: so you wasted $1.39 on something that doesn’t taste good. You’ll live.
Why buy this crap when you can get the Real Thing?
Nasty, Nasty stuff. And I got a free bottle they were handing out by the train station. Wasn’t worth the effort to tip that crap to my lips.
