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.
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.
DEW® with a blast of natural & artificial guava flavor. Vacation in a bottle.
The Baja flavors are usually pretty good and this one is no exception. You can definitely taste the guava. I’m not sure I’d buy another one, but I’d drink one. Solid 7/10.
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.
Mountain Dew has brought back Pitch Black and I’m not sure I ever had it. I couldn’t find a MtDewVirus review for it, so here we are. I was trying to figure out what this tasted like when B said “It tastes like a flat grape Crush.” She had it. It’s a shitty version of a grape pop, so it only gets a 4/10. I would not buy this.
This year’s mystery flavor tastes like bomb pops and the Faygo Firework flavor. I’ll score it a 7/10.
On Wednesday I saw a tweet from Mountain Dew about a new flavor I hadn’t heard of. It’s a flavor which was released to stores in 2010 but hadn’t been made in over a decade. It was only available through The Dew Store. It seemed like people had loved it, so I ordered a 6 pack of 16 ounce cans, which ran about $20 after shipping.
I have a head cold this weekend so I wanted to drink a couple of cans before writing my review. This is easily one of the best flavors I’ve had, maybe only second (other than the original) to White Out. I’m glad I have four more cans to enjoy, but I don’t understand why they don’t keep some of these fan favorites around full-time.
I give it a 9.5/10.
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.
