The Koka Labz Dexter Halloween Edition is a pre-workout for the hardcore enthusiast. Its intense formula delivers smooth energy, focus, and euphoria, making it a great choice for long, high-intensity gym sessions. However, the lack of transparency around certain ingredients and minimal pump support make it less appealing for some users.

Check It OutTo start with the taste of this is really bad, I would advise you to put it in a small amount of water and hold your nose.. it also can come back to haunt you with burps throughout the day.
I have taken this at 2 scoops, 3 scoops and 3.5 but for the review I will be speaking on 2 scoops as most people will be doing that dose.
It kicks in fast around 20 minutes and grows every 10 minutes before stabilising at around the hour to 80 minute mark.
It is a pleasant mostly physical energy slightly lacking in focus benefits, I would say better for heavy reps.
My heart rate felt stable and healthy on this compared to a lot of high stim products on the market.
The energy lasted for around 8 hours and there was no crash.
It was more than enough for even a gruelling full body workout and thw pump was not bad but not amazing, there was less mood elevation than the ingredient label would lead you to expect.
Overall I would give this an 8/10 as outside of it being heavy on the stomach and awful tasting it's a good pre workout.
I decided to give this one a first try at 2.5 scoops (16g) on an empty stomach. I was very tempted to go with the “experienced” 3 scoops since I seem to be fine at a full dose of crack OG, but I’ve never had a really bad pre experience, and didn’t want to start now.
I’m not going to give scores on categories because I’m not too experienced with illicit pres or reviews and feel it would be more accurate to just tell you my thoughts.
Taste- not good, but not as bad as I was expecting. It really reminded me of 2013 era 1MR
Experience- I took the drink at 1:20pm and felt slightly jittery as I was leaving the house (roughly 20 min), but that seemed to go away pretty quick. I didn’t notice much for beta tingles.
I started warming up doing squats and never really noticed a hard hit, it all came in smoothly and before you know it, I felt an extreme amount of focus and determination.
I also had legitimate tunnel vision, and it seemed burred at a distance. My first thought about that was, “well I’ve been near sighted for close to 30 years and only wear my glasses to play CoD, so what I’m seeing is just reality and im focused on the blurry vision”. Does that even make sense?
Now im going to compare this to 2 scoops of crack OG. I didn’t set any PRs for reps (recently did with OG), which i believe is because it didn’t have the hard hit and with the amount of focus I felt, I think it was just instinct to not push for an extra rep or two, that I likely could have done. I didn’t feel depleted when I moved to hack squats and accessory lifts, just honesty felt good and didn’t have to talk myself into doing any lifts that I typically dread.
Feeling- nice and clean, although tough to pee. When I walked out of the bathroom after the treadmill, I really felt like just walking out the door and aimlessly going down road. I probably could have solved some life problems by the end of it.
Pump was good, but inconclusive because I added 1 scoop of bloodbath
I felt good when I got home, but around 5pm I started to feel drained and it was time to head to work. I mostly just felt like I needed a pick me up to get going, so I wouldn’t call it a bad come down.
Overall I really liked it, and if I can avoid the crash at the end with a few more tries, I’d rank it up there with the best pre experiences I’ve had. Definitely a winner and I’m glad I picked some up. Sorry for the rambling/long review for guys that like to get straight to the point (usually me)
