Mtn Dew: Hard Flavors

I tried the main Mountain Dew Hard flavor back in August and was not impressed. This weekend I finally opened a can of the Baja Blast and after my first sip I thought it might be ok. Then the aftertaste kicked in. I finished off the can, but am not even going to bother with the other two flavors. This doesn’t even deserve a rating. Save your money and buy other alcohol. Stick to pop if you want Mountain Dew taste.

Hard Mtn Dew

I’ve been interested in trying out the Hard Mtn Dew ever since I heard about it. Last month we finally saw it on our road trip to Tennessee, so we bought the variety 12 pack with four flavors. Of course I had to try the original first.

It tastes like Mountain Dew Zero Sugar, which is not a good thing. Diet and Zero are nasty. This has 5% alcohol, but I didn’t taste any. I can only give it a 3/10. I hope the other flavors are better, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

Mtn Dew: Baja Passionfruit Punch

DEW® with a blast of natural & artificial passionfruit flavor. Perfect for a tropical summer.

I’m not sure what passionfruit punch is supposed to taste like, but it’s not good. I don’t know if it’s the color tricking me, but I get a slight grape taste. It’s not a good flavor and only gets 4/10 because I could handle finishing the bottle.

Mtn Dew: Summer Freeze

Is it just me or do they release a lot of blue flavors? Maybe I have a memory bias because it’s my favorite color.

B thinks it tastes like the bomb pop Faygo, but that was the 2022 Voo-Dew. I don’t get that and I’m having a hard time placing the taste, but the initial wave of aftertaste is very familiar. Overall it’s a solid flavor I’d drink again if someone gave it to me. I don’t think I’d buy one, so it gets a 6/10.
