MRM BCAA+G
Anabolic Innovations Excell
Scivation Xtend
Xtreme Formulations ICE
All solid formulas, all flavored. I have tried MRM's and Scivation's product (both flavors for Sci), and neither one would make me gag - although I wouldn't recommend the grape, on personal preference  .

I've only tried Grape Xtend, but it is awesome tasting. Great product, not to mention the new flavor that they have coming out. Can't wait for that.

I went through a tub of Xtend watermelon and absolutely loved it. I'm on MRM BCAA+G and it's not far behind I thoroughly enjoy both of them. Have a tub of the old Purple Wraath that I'm scared to try but i'll get through it. I want CL to come out with a nice new flavor for Purple Wraath. Shock Therapy and Storm are both grape, I'm so sick of grape

I just wish adding bulk leucine didn't completely annihilate the taste of any pre/during/post w/o blends I make with it Still trying to figure out how to consume any sufficient amounts of this stuff.

Universal EAA stack tastes incredible. Its just so pricey. Primaforce Primal EAA is much more affordable.

I have been mixing bulk AAs in my 8-BetaAnabol and they have been disolving/ fairly well. I have anything acidic, such as vitamin c, and/or CHO helpful as well.

Supposedly these aren't found in MRM or Xtend.
Thoughts on that?

Xtend and MRM BCAA+G are BCAA products, xtend also contains glutamine and citrulline malate.
Purple wrath is EAA with a Endurance complex I do believe, there is also Primal EAA which is EAA.
All are good, and your goals will decide which one you want.

Excuse the ignorance, but would you mind expanding on that?
Under what scenarios would I use Xtend vs. Purple Wraath?
Thanks.
