:-B
Those Flugel are the stupidest things!
It's basically like making one Red Bull + Cranberry Vodka then splitting it up 
into 6 shots and bottling them individually. Really pointless and nowhere near 
as strong as people think.
Apparently only 9-10% alc, and dispensed in tiny doses (I saw mostly 20ml 
bottles)

I've seen them on sale in the bubblegum racks, and the marketing (with cute 
cartoons) is SOO aimed at kids.

But folk bang them down then act all goofy like they've just been shooting 
straight jagermeisters. Idjits.
