They do this all the time, they will take a soda that pretty much already exists and slap their own gimmicky label on it. Whatever makes the shekels.

I liked it. Has less overall sugar compared to regular dew per 16oz bottle (not by much, but still), while still retaining an enjoyable flavor.

I am a melon lover though so my opinion is mildy biased, but i would give it 8/10. Solid drink and I hope it remains in the Dew family.

Yeah nah, in my area I've never seen this before, not in gas stations, grocery stores, restaurants, nowhere. Crush in generally isn't very prominent around here though. The only flavors I ever really see stocked regularly in stores are orange and either grape or strawberry (they always seem to only have one or the other, rarely they'll have both at the same place). I saw pineapple ONCE I think, and there's one specific ghetto as fuck Philly cheese steak restaurant near me that stocks 20oz of peach.

>> No.15421356

>>15419804
I'd place it about on par with code red personally, definitely better than whiteout. I can't for the life of me understand why anyone likes whiteout or how it beat out distortion to become a permanent flavor.

Baja Blast is still the best variant they've made to date.

I don't normally go for a soda, but I always need to try new Dew flavors. It's been hard to come by, but I finally got one of these yesterday at a Speedway.

What I find disconcerting is the state of Major Melon himself.
I mean he's got these horrible open gashes on his melon body and seems okay with it.
He even has a slice of his own body in his helmet band and those shark teeth.
