Monster Energy Pipeline Punch Returns on March 3, 2020

Monster Energy Pipeline Punch Returns on March 3, 2020
Before its release, it was already making waves as the "Pink Monster" or "Hawaiian Monster." When it finally launched in Japan on April 23, 2019, Pipeline Punch introduced Japanese consumers to a tropical fruit-flavored Monster Energy like never before.

However, just one month after its release, in May 2019, it was discontinued due to overwhelming demand

Pipeline Punch Re-release on March 3, 2020

According to Monster Energy Japan's Twitter, the re-release of Pipeline Punch will begin on March 3.

It has been a little over 9 months since the news of Pipeline Punch's discontinuation in May 2019. It’s been quite a wait!

Perhaps the increase in production at the Asahi Beverage Gunma Factory, which was covered in December 2019, played a role. Either way, it was always expected that this popular product, which was guaranteed to sell, would not be discontinued permanently. However, the wait for its re-release took much longer than anticipated.

While there were still plenty of resale items circulating online, it’s great that now it will be available for purchase at regular retail prices!

As an energy drink enthusiast, I began drinking them seriously again, collecting over 7,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.
