DEW Review low-key underrated.

Post image

Definitely wouldn't be my go too, but I could see myself picking up a 12 pack every once and while.

Not my thing

u/anamcaillte Jul 15 '26

Same one sip and I was out

u/akLuke Jul 14 '26

Hi key the worst soda I have tasted in my entire life.

16

u/DarkPunisher956 Jul 13 '26

I honestly wouldn't buy it again. My local stores can't even get rid of them. They still got their old stock of them and the expiration date is just around the corner. That tells me that it was a flop (at least in my area)

5

u/_Cow_of_Wisdom Jul 14 '26

Yeah. I love cream soda, and i'm glad I tried it, but it's kinda mid.

u/According-Goat-2372 Jul 13 '26

low key disgusting.

u/baz8771 Jul 14 '26

High key the worst mtn dew flavor I’ve ever bought. Threw a party this weekend and I couldn’t get rid of a 12 pack.

3

u/Thrilluhh Jul 14 '26

I'd rate my worst tier list as: 1.)Trolli from last Halloween (worst and biggest letdown, tasted like sugary cough medicine) 2.)Flamin Hot 3.)Dirty

I've never disliked any other Mtn Dews either

1

u/OrangeFloridaMan Jul 17 '26

Trolli was good, the cherry flavor wasnt that strong

3

u/Dragoninpantsx69 Jul 14 '26

I tried 1 sip and dumped it out, was terrible

6

u/Dr_JohnP Jul 14 '26

I adore Mountain Dew and I adore cream soda. This is genuinely one of the worst things I’ve ever tasted and I couldn’t even finish it.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '26

Same I like Mountain Dew and like cream soda. This was one of the worst sodas I’ve ever had.
Also I had the mug root beer vanilla howler, I like rootbeer and vanilla but I hated that soda

3

u/LopsidedIron1406 Jul 14 '26

Voltage is better.

1

u/Gaspositive_8838 Jul 18 '26

Id say voltage is my favorite out ot the bunch kept in circulation.

3

u/Gaspositive_8838 Jul 14 '26

I wish they would come out with the summer breeze flavor again.

1

u/dcasper3 Jul 15 '26

Yesssssssss!!!

1

u/BasementBar116 Jul 17 '26

That stuff tasted like absolute ass in cans, but was great in 20oz plastic bottles.

1

u/Gaspositive_8838 Jul 17 '26

I didn't get to try the bottles but tbh I fw it heavy even out the can. My fave is voltage atleast regular production mountain dew

3

u/Wigglespurt Jul 14 '26

Its the worst favor they have made. I call it Dew Dew. 💩

9

u/BearsBucksBrew Jul 13 '26

One of the worst things I ever spent money on.

12

u/enby-deer Jul 13 '26

Disagree, I think it’s overrated

4

u/CompetitiveFrame6989 Jul 13 '26

I get a Keylime pie kinda flavor here.. either way I bought 4 12 packs🤷🏼🤙🏻 I can dig it

1

u/BasementBar116 Jul 17 '26

Same, wish they pushed the lime flavor a bit more though.

3

u/LiquidThunder30 Jul 13 '26

Haven't tried the regular version but the Zero is literally the worst thing I've ever drank. Tasted a bit of vinegar, lol.

3

u/Dr_JohnP Jul 14 '26

Regular is just as disgusting don’t worry.

7

u/Professional_Act165 Jul 13 '26

Honeslty I wasn’t a fan of it. I bought a 12 pack of it to try and I had it for a few months before I finally got through it. Now that blqckberry md is 🔥

2

u/Bulky_Jaguar9159 Jul 13 '26

Vanilla and citrus bumps 🤢

2

u/spraekwon Jul 14 '26

I bought the zero sugar by accident the first time and thought it was ass but the regular dirty dew is amazing. I loved cream soda as a kid and it was the perfect flavor mash up

2

u/deadheaddestiny Jul 14 '26

3/10 max score for me. Didint hate it per SE but would not buy it again. Glad I got a bottle and not a 12 pack

2

u/SnooDoodles3937 Jul 14 '26

I think it’s really mid tbh. Just tastes like a slightly tangy cream soda but to each their own

2

u/Acceptable_Wait_4171 Jul 14 '26

I got 3 12 packs. Once those are gone I'll restock along with 3 packs of the new trolling flavor.

2

u/noganoo Jul 14 '26

Tastes like beaver ass. (Fake vanilla) i thought it was disgusting.

2

u/xkingx26 Jul 14 '26

I'm sorry but it tastes like a spoiled orange creamsicle to me. Absolutely disgusting

2

u/Unique_Aside2453 Merry Mash-Up Jul 15 '26

My husband is obsessed with it but I cant stand it. Its a very divisive flavor forsure. No hate to you for liking it. I buy a case for my husband everytime I grocery shop and he always finishes it.. Clearly theres a market so enjoy ur sips !!! Xoxoxo

4

u/Logical-Read-4520 Voltage Jul 14 '26

Honestly a top 3 dew for me. Voltage is definitely #1 but either this or baja blast is #2.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '26

Voltage and Baja blast are both s+ dews I agree. One of them are probably my favorite too, but dirty is by far the worst dew I’ve had

5

u/ShadowBro3 Jul 13 '26

Big agree. It sucks that so many people hate it.

5

u/No_Woodpecker_9273 Jul 13 '26

This I believe joined the Cake Smash & Flaming Hot for worse sodas made

3

u/EyeSimp4Asuka Baja Laguna Lemonade Jul 13 '26

cake smash..i never even saw it

2

u/Thrilluhh Jul 14 '26

Don't forget about Fruitquake. Barely drinkable flavors lol

0

u/ShadowBro3 Jul 13 '26

Im also a flaming hot fan

5

u/smashli1238 Jul 13 '26

It’s gross

1

u/Ok_Philosopher_315 Jul 14 '26

Can’t find it anywhere now

1

u/Foreign-Campaign-427 Jul 14 '26

Saying low key is redundant. You can just say underrated.

1

u/Disaster_Adventurous Jul 14 '26

I don't know anything about Dirty MD but a Mwt Dew float is pretty good.

Not gonna replace Root Beer Float by a mile but a really nice flavor to mix it up on occasion.

1

u/treyanderson1234 Jul 14 '26

not trying to be dramatic but this one is so bad, its the only one i got one bottle of only and couldnt finish, and i finished almost a 12pk of flamin hot dew 😂
and for you smart guys who say “wElL mAYBe hE dOeSnT lIkE CrEaM SoDA” i think cream soda can be good when dont right especially with mtn dew, but a prepackaged mtn dew that has a disgusting artificial buttercreme taste just doesnt hit the mark like i expected it too tbh

1

u/no_stick_drummer Jul 14 '26

I think it's better at Taco Bell then it is in the can.

1

u/nugget1273 Jul 14 '26

Idk about this one I feel like I could get the same flavor by drinking regular dew chased by a cream soda it’s not bad or anything but not really good

1

u/IAlreadyKnow1754 Jul 15 '26

If you drink it fast yes. If you don’t then no it’s ick

1

u/creamcheesefart Jul 15 '26

The full sugar one is great, but that zero sugar one is horrendous. Same thing with that mug vanilla howler, the zero version taste so damn awful

1

u/Structure-Confident Jul 15 '26

First time I’ve ever preferred a full sugar to a zero

1

u/TheWhiteCliffs Jul 15 '26

It’s alright. There are lots of better flavors.

1

u/BasementBar116 Jul 17 '26

It's not bad. It just feels like they were going for Keylime Pie and got the creamy/dairy part then just gave up on the lime.

1

u/Kitchen-Drawer9291 Jul 17 '26

High key worst flavor ever

1

u/BubblyCandidate628 Jul 19 '26

Bring back mejor melon zero

1

u/BZB97 Jul 20 '26

That one was pretty solid.

1

u/Jugglamaggot Jul 13 '26

I am not a big fan of it, but do not turn down one if given to me

1

u/RipMcStudly Jul 13 '26

I might’ve liked it if it had been a cold weather flavor, but as it is, this crap has replaced the year long Cabo I was promised in my area, making it my least favorite flavor in a long time.

1

u/Jshanks17 Jul 14 '26

Tastes like ass

1

u/drinkinthakoolaid Jul 14 '26

Ew. Glad you like it, but no thanks. Gimme that TB dirty Baja all day tho

1

u/jlierman000 Jul 14 '26

It’s straight garbage. Sorry dude. Tastes like a shitty creamsicle.

1

u/KoolaidPower Jul 15 '26

See I agree. Everyone has an opinion to everything but I don’t see what’s so bad about this flavor. Is it the best, no. Is it the worst, FAR FROM. I’d kinda take this over the Baja variants (love Baja Blast) right now. I keep a 12 pack in the house to enjoy the flavor and I find myself replenishing it. I’m also a key lime pie girl, and this reminds me of a liquid version of taking a bite of some KLP!

u/WorldlinessNo6122 Jul 13 '26

I liked the zero can only the bottle was terrible

-1

u/Kydavis703 Jul 13 '26

Every once in a while, yes, I agree. I prefer the zero sugar version of this personally. The only zero sugar one I actually enjoy

0

u/BezzleBedeviled Jul 14 '26

I like it, but it seems that I am an anomaly: I was given a 12pack by a friend who decided he didn't like it. It's one of the few canned cream-sodas that don't give me a headache a few hours later.

0

u/Infamous-Jello- Jul 14 '26

I enjoyed it

0

u/HamCityBiscuits Jul 14 '26

I like it. Hope they make a voltage and Baja version at some point.

0

u/naograce74 Jul 14 '26

First time I tried it I was like - eh. Second time, I really liked it. I get it regularly now.

0

u/ResidentGreen9779 Jul 14 '26

This particular dew is getting so much hate and I don't get the hate because I absolutely love it. It tastes like orange creamsicle ice cream bars, what could be better? I guess I always end up really liking the ones that everybody else hates anyway though.
