SideQuesting’s Favorite Beverage of PAX West 2025: 5-hour Energy Outer Worlds 2 Purpleberry Punch

What happens when you take a big upcoming game and develop a real energy drink for it? A GOOD IDEA, that’s what

Team SideQuesting like to consider ourselves to be connoisseurs of the energy drink. Aficionados, some might say. And as such, we were drawn to the 5-hour Energy booth at PAX West 2025 to experience the debut of their new Outer Worlds 2 themed flavors, Purpleberry Punch and MockMelon Brew. Our verdict? Delicious.

OUR FAVORITE DRINK AT THE SHOW.

Check out our taste-test of the new flavors, as well as show floor interview with 5-hour’s Brian McClary about what went into the development of the flavors.

This video first appeared on The SideQuest Live for September 2, 2025. 5-Hour Energy sent samples of the product to SideQuesting. We also tried the beverage on the PAX West 2025 show floor.
