Posted April 19, 2010 Dew + Vodka is nice. I can't believe it's never made it in the UK. It's just like any other soft drink here. Very common. I suppose its a lot like 7Up/Sprite so people think why bother maybe? Its okay. Not particularly fussed. Had a few in Tokyo where you could get a bottle for around 70p. Will probably be double that here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 19, 2010 If you're willing to be bathed in it certain sites will pay quite handsomely. Mountain Dew, Gin and Vodka... That's the shit. How dare you ruin the glory of Gin with the mediocrity of Vodka. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wasn't my idea But yes, Gin is possibly my favourite drink, love it. Unfortunately whenever there are student nights a gin and tonic will always cost significantly more than a vodka/coke so unless its triples for singles it's Gin and lemonades for me!

Posted April 19, 2010 Fookin brilliant news just a shame that I had to be in France at the time. With the hoo ha Red bull had trying to get France to actually let them sell it here, I am somehow skeptical that France will allow a penis shrivelling drink to be sold on the shelves here.

Posted April 19, 2010 WOOOT this is awesome news, hope it comes out here too, I won't have to keep buying the way overpriced ones at the asian stores in Dublin anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 We had it and then... we lost it. I actually suspect a really long term marketing ploy exists where you stop producing something in one country for 10 years then relaunch it with an extra 20p on the price (on top of inflation) and sell a shit load to people who've convinced themselves they miss it. Something like that really wouldn't surprise me for PepsiCo. It is PepsiCo that make it right? I suppose its a lot like 7Up/Sprite so people think why bother maybe? I agree it's very similar but is something extra in it, I'm not sure what. I imagine something starting with E followed by many numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 I've bought this in Japan a few times and also once or twice in England and it's okay I guess. Not entirely sure what all the fuss is about though. Oddly last time I had it I looked over the ingredients, and it seems to contain loads of orange juice, which I can't stand on its own (or oranges for that matter). Not keen on Sprite/7up/lemonade either. Might drink this occasionally if it's not too expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 Mountain Dew was awesome back in the day. Wonder if it still tastes as pr0 as it once did. Something like that really wouldn't surprise me for PepsiCo. It is PepsiCo that make it right? It appears so, plus they remixed the title: On October 15, 2008, Mountain Dew's official logo was redesigned to "Mtn Dew", from a PepsiCo rebranding of core products.

Posted April 20, 2010 It is a PepsiCo product however the last UK incarnation was managed by Britvic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 I hope they're not going to add anything to it. Before it was a simple carbonated refreshing beverage. Now they're remarketing it as an energy drink... None of that taurine shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 Anyone ever try the lidl energy drinks? they're keeping me through my end of year projects... crate after crate of cheapness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 I've never had it, but it sounds a bit odd of a name to call an energy drink chock full of chemicals. Sounds more like the name of a mineral water brand. I'll probably try it if i see it, now that i know it's got such a fan base. *is curious* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 20, 2010 Lucky Charms isnt available worldwide? Lunacy.It used to be available here but the sugar:cereal ratio was too much for us. Children were hyper for 32 hours straight!

Posted April 20, 2010 Well with the dew petitions finally working, about time the internet puts lucky charms as its next target? I personally think the Pokemon Cereal version needs to make a re-entry and have a marshmallow for every mon' guaranteed in the box, so we dont get jipped like some boxes of Lucky Charms having fuck all mallows.
