A documentation and review of limited time, special edition, or otherwise hard-to-find noms.
Products circa: Spring 2024
Laguna Lemonade: Tasty enough, but with a fake-tasting mango flavoring that pales in comparison to the Mountain Dew Mango Gem released a few years ago.
Point Break Punch: A fruit punch that's decidedly more "tropical" in flavor than the other million fruit punch Dews that have been made. But something is off with the balance of the sweetness... either there's too much sugar, or not enough acidic bite. But a nice change, overall.
Product circa: Spring 2024
Awful. Whatever buffalo flavor they have added here goes horribly with the "aged" cheese flavor base of the original.
Product circa: 2020 and onward, only at Dollar General stores
My hype for this one didn't help. Supposedly a pineapple Dew, the fruit flavoring here is so subtle that is tastes straight up bland. I'll be on the lookout for more to make sure it wasn't just the can I bought.
Product circa: Summer 2023
Not the first time a "rocket pop"-flavored soda has been released. Unfortunately this seems to have a quality about it that I can't help describe as a "deadness". It's missing something to make it lively.
Product circa: 2021, only at Kroger supermarkets
A bright green apple flavor combines with Dew's citrus base to create a tart-yet-sweet mixture.
Product Circa: 2017
Released alongside White Label, which I don't think I ever tried.
I'm not a fan of green apple, but the application here is subtle. Despite the zero-calorie sweetener added, this manages to taste refined, and surprisingly good. No kiwi detected.
Product circa: November 2023
A slightly sour fruit punch Dew to cross-branded with the video game Diablo IV. Not a particularly special fruit punch flavor, but for whatever reason, it tastes really great. One of the best Dews I've tasted in the last 5, or even 10 years.
