Nick Momrik: Asparagus is gross
This doesn’t even sound like a good idea and of course I was going to try it. The left side of the label says “Caution: Flamin’ Hot Taste” but there is no such thing. I definitely get a citrus flavor and can tell it’s a Mtn Dew, but there is no kick to it and not even a hint of an aftertaste. It’s actually a decent flavor, but due to falling short on its name I give it a 4/10.
The apple flavor reminds me of something, but I can’t place it. Definitely not like the amazing green apple Jolly Ranchers. I can’t decide if I like the taste or not so I’ll give it a 6/10.
I wasn’t expecting much from this special Dew, but I was quite impressed. The gingerbread flavor is very noticeable while not being overpowering. It paired well with the cider donuts I was eating. Solid 7/10 and would be higher if it was a taste I would ever select.
You can tell there is flavor there trying to be a tropical punch, but it’s a missed right jab when combined with the Mountain Dew. I wouldn’t get this again, so I’ll give it a 3/10.
Hopefully the Baja Flash will be better.

This is not good. Probably the worst flavor I’ve ever had. I give it 2/10.
Maybe being impressed by Coke Zero set my expectations too high, because this should be called Zero Flavor. It’s worse than Mellow Yellow.
MtDewVirus Score: 2/10
The can looks fun, that’s for sure. You get some familiarity with the original Mountain Dew flavor, spiked with some pineapple. I’d drink it again.
MtDewVirus Score: 6.5/10
Factor 75 sent me a selection of their new cold-pressed juices to try. I drank the Pineapple Turmeric Basil today and it tasted like I imagine a blended dandelion tasting. Do people drink this shit and enjoy it?
Update: The Apple Kale Wheatgrass and Carrot Orange Ginger were both really good. The Apple Beet Ginger has way too much beet taste, but is better than the Pineapple one.
They must have known this flavor wasn’t going to be a keeper because they didn’t even bother to give it a name.
MtDewVirus Score: 4/10
The color, which you can’t appreciate from this photo, is awesome. That’s where the awesome ends though. “50 flavors in one” is a terrible idea or maybe they added too much of the Ohio flavor. 🤷🏻♂️
Liberty Brew gets 3/10.
