Description: The name is derived from the Danube River in Hungary. The typography is 100% custom made and the orange color refers to the energy, the brown of the caffeine. A central starting point drove consistently throughout the whole typeface. The letters stems from small waves reached up and surrounded by the inscription round, giving turbulent atmosphere.

Cool work! I thought it was an ambigram at first - almost is. Thanks for the explanation, it really makes the design that much more interesting.

Hard to read and typo style looks a little dated IMO

It looks cool but I wonder if it would work. As jonnyd pointed out it's not very legible and indeed it might look a little dated. Also if I'd stand in front of the energy drink shelf I think this wouldn't really stand out to me, then again, that would depend on how you'd implement it into a bottle/can.

%5E it's a marmite kind of logo really. I don't hate it, true that is yr point about something which is not forgettable as well. With a little more maturing it could tick all the boxes! However as it stands it belongs more in a FUSE collection as an experimental typeface that on a retail shelf!

I agree with David. This type of logo is not necessarily and at all costs be readable at the moment. In my opinion this is one very memorable logo. I don't like color schemes at all. Some lime light green-black color scheme would be good solution.
